Impatiently waiting......

Hello fellow riders,
I'm up in Maine and ready to go crazy, waiting for spring. I just became the proud owner of a 2001 RC51, which I find out now is the odd-ball of the RC's, but what are you gonna do? I've had it now for a month, and have completely gone through it, heat-wrapped the exhaust, flushed all the fluids, removed flapper-valve, and some other little cosmetic tweaks, and was wondering if there are any suggestions, while its still plastic-free, for any other common mods. Thanks for your comments and suggestions
