Regarding the footpegs, I splurged and got a set of Pivot Pegz for mine. I'm still on the fence of they're worth it or not. Check out YouTube, I've got a short vid on them.
I've always used Motul Chain Lube for my bike. I've read that WD40 contains solvents that deteriorate the rubber o-ring on chains. I've since upgraded to a Scottoiler which was a worthwhile investment. Its a bit messy but the pros of automated lubrication outweighs the messiness.
The TTs headlight is anemic. Based on the feedback the ADVmonster LED drop-in headlight should be good. I've invested in a brand-new fairing with aftermarket LED lights from ADVmonster. Expensive but I found that wind protection is sorely needed on long rides. I've also mounted a LED tailbulb on mine. I don't think its any brighter, but it can't burn out like a regular tailbulb.
I keep on hearing how difficult it is to kickstart a warm TT, but I've got zero issues with mine. Starts first kick warm all the time

Cannot thank you enough for that little gem of a side mate! Thank you I'll be looking into new levers and foot pegs soon enough. I've ordered a motocross style number board/sticker set for her to jazz her up a little in the mean time.
I've brought and LED rear bulb from eBay but unfortunately I didn't work! Ill have to carry on looking.
Also another upgrade I've seen which is worth while is a magnetic sump plug. Found a m14 1.5 plug originally for a fiesta which apparently fits. (Off eBay £5.99).
I may well look into the head light upgrade you speak of as the current one is like a tea candle!
Out of interests mate what sprockets are you running and how are you finding them?
Thanks again.
