Handling: 4 new tires (razr's or holeshots) they stiffen up the ride a bit, but they don't roll in the corners nearly as much and make the steering quite accurate. After that, some new shocks.
Speed: Play with the gearing, most people go to a 14 tooth up front for a bit more top speed, and it doesnt hurt the acceleration much.
Acceleration: New exhaust, K&N Airfilter helps out a bit, just get it to breathe a little better.
Looks: Pick out a nice graphic kit you like, or some Fullbore Plastics, those are really nice also.

Get a custom shock mount kit, (sold on ebay) and get either 400EX,250R, or 450R shocks. Much cheaper than buying works shocks or any others.

Excuse my ignorance here. Do you need the shock relocator kit for the front and rear before changing to a 450R shock or is it just one of them. In the meantime, I'll research Ebay for the kit.

Thanks
