I'll go through some of the things I've done to mine, its also worth checking out a few others on here....Markus springs to mind here.
You can get some nice teardrop DP mirrors or bar ends as you mention, I think I'll just put pictures of my kids in them instead of mirror glass as you cant see anything behind you anyway,you get used to it though.
Get rid of the cat before any other exhaust mods,looks nicer and actually sounds nicer too.
I've 'cored' my stock exhausts, rebuilding the internals like most aftermarket ones, cheaper,not difficult but a lot of work.I also opened my airbox, a couple here have pod filters,I've seen mixed opinions about those
Spot the oil line on mine ....hypermotard oil delivery line is a straight bolt on,when I get time the starter wire and oil temp wire will be rerouted.
Which bring me to belt covers, these ones are as rare as rocking horse poo though there a chap in the US developing similar ones, throw money at them and you can get some rizoma ones.
Clip ons like I have are an aquired taste, I like them and have also lowered the headlight clocks and nose fairing and funky top yoke.
Bolt on some new brakes, mine are from an SS900.
Powdercoating anything alloy or chrome is always an option, my footpegs are next , to match the headlight assembly.
Crash bungs are common.
I have a DP short tail on mine, neatens up the back end without resorting to power tools, I do like tailchops too though.
Thats a gel seat there, your butt will love you for it.
Theres two types of hugger,I have the smaller DP one which lets crap through the gap in the swingarm, the bigger on is made in Germany,cant recall the make at the moment looks a bit clumsy in pictures but not noticable when fitted.
Smaller indicators, I had some really small ones but took them off and fitted some intermediate sized ones.
Thats a DP diversion front mudguard,you can also get carbon ones in the standard pattern,I've also seen SS and superbike mudguards fitted.
Lot here seem to like those air scoops into the frame,cools down the rear cylinder, bellypans also seem popular.





Once you done a few of those we can suggest some more if you'd like!

Jeez remind me not to go on a rideout with you and be put to shame!!!!
