just my opinion, but if you are not comfortable enough, how much time are go going to be on your bike, would be a waste of money if you went performance first and your bike just sat there.

But what you think will make you happy. There is a nice combination of performance & comfort available for $1,000. Just shop wisley.

Example:

Saddle man Seats can be bought for $250.00 to $325.00 depending on the seat. Pipes I paid about 325 for mine delivered Vance & hines Cruzers. Cobra or Techlusion fuel injection unit under $200.00. I found a great condition used shield on Ebay for about $50.00 it is a National Cycle Winshield. New about $100-125. Highway bars some guys will buy them used depends on what you want.
