Better tires and some sort of rack bag/box. Front and rear bumpers are nice to have too.

a snow plow is a great option.and another set of light's for night riding, or for when you are useing the plow the extra light's are nice.also a windsheild for winter riding, hand and thumb warmer's are sweet,fender extention's for the front are well worth the money,and a rear seat for the dog, or or to lay back on when you stop for a break. and a miny tac/hour meter is good so you can keep an eye on your rpm's when your riding, and the hr's you have it running. and better tire's. i have all of these on my cat and im still looking for more stuff.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'd reccommend hand guards, hand and thumb warmers, rack extensions, a tach/hour meter (got mine from Northern Tool for around $35), tire repair kit, a GOOD First Aid Kit, a small tool kit, the A/C Brush guard rather than the front bumper, and rear bumper. On down the road (after the warrenty expires) a jet kit (A/C's seem to run rich), and an aftermarket air filter. Different tires seem to be a good idea, although I'm waiting until I've run the originals into the ground and stronger rims. My kids have bent the beads on 2 of the 4 rims.

Glad to hear ya bought a Cat. It all depends on what kind of riding you do. The deeper you go into the country the more you will need. Are you going to be doing any riding by yourself? If it's just gonna be you and a couple of buddies, then the winch, tow rope, first aid kit, and tire repiar kit is about all you need. look through past posts and the other forums for similar topics and you will find all kinds of information on what to carry.
