Bars are not too difficult to replace at all. Just reroute the cables and lines a little. I just took some dikes and nipped the tits off the clutch and brake assemblies to make them work without drilling holes.
The bars are about 3 inches wider than the other ones. I love the riding position, have only taken it around the block, but feels very nice.

(looking at a parts site, looks like we have a 525 chain: http://www.motosport.com/motorcycle...WHEEL/CHAIN-(DID-525V10_121LL)/94582-31122-00)

I like these guys: http://www.moto-chains.com/site/898528/page/567249 for chains... they ask you how many links you want, cut it to length for you and they have masters and practically any color out there. Sounds like a small shop too. I like the small shops for stuff like this. Especially when you do your own wrenching. However if you aren't going to swap out the chain yourself, find out if your mechanic will install stuff that you buy elsewhere. I had that problem once. :/
so I'd probably go with http://www.moto-chains.com/site/898528/product/ek525mvxz

I got the chain off ebay for 55 bucks sent to my house. Tensil strength of 9500 lbs, o-ring, etc. I change shit out so much I could not see putting a 100 dollar chian on it. I am pretty sure mid season I will go to a black chain or something else.
Has any one seen a black rear sprocket? I havent done much research yet, but seem to only find steel ones that are not colored.

First real ride yesterday, WOW the handle bars change up the ride totally!!! These are quite a bit wider, so turning, leans, seating posture, etc have all changed. The steering is stupid light, caught myself over turning at first, just going into my commute turns like I normally do, and found myself on the inside sholder right away. Oops!!! I love the new bars! They feel awesome, only put about 65 miles on, but man they are nice!!!!!!!!!!
The gold chain with the black sprocket is freaking tits!!! Had a bunch of people at work that know my bike checking it out and commented on the chain and sprocket! Now I just need to finish painting the air box cover and put that back on.

Like the chain I ll do the same when it comes to replace it and black sprocket. Handle bars not my cup of tea thou. I would rather have them low and wide to increase a forward lean on the bike, but thats just me
