my lil fiddy is bone stock,,,,,,,, and i have been contemplating on what to put on her for awhile now......... And the one thing that will make it ten times more fun is a "twelve bar" plain and ****** simple.........
for less than $100 you should be able to get new fork springs and a new rear spring, along with a new triple clamp that moves the stock bars out. (see jbaker for the clamp).
Those mods make 100% difference and they cost less than the plastics.
Big bore when you get the skills down.

i would say my fav mod is either spring or bars but the nice thing about the spring is it also jack the back end of the bike up so you are not constantly scrapin the pegs whill truning but they are both still mad helpfull
If you just concentrating on wheelies and stoppies right now I'd say big bars first. This helped out immensely with my stoppies......But......if you are into jumping off of ledges and vehicles and other **** I'd lean towards the front/rear springs.
I say..go with the clamp from Jbaker ....i just got mine last week and its off tha hook...
...Now waiting on a new folding shifter..
I say the front and rear springsas well...
Then work on ur bore kit and **** like that....

how do you change the rear spring on the stock shock?

You take off the whole shock assembly. Then you have to heat the top eye (my gas stove did it in about 45 seconds) and it screws out of the whole assembly. Then slide off the old and on the new, and screw the eye back onto the assembly. Took me about 15 min. taking plastics off included and not knowing **** and having to read the directions.
What?
Why would a big man want a little man's bars on his bike? My six year old daughter would rather have the big bars. Why you need a sissy bar to catch you? Can't wheelie that big bad 50 on your own???

The guy wanted to know the best mod.
I gave him 3 mods that you can do for under $100..!!. Big bars and clamp is hardly gonna be close to that.?
But if you want to go that way, I guess the best mod would be to just buy the whole damn Fast 50's kit for like $3500, then huh?
