Not enough yet (around $900) since I still get to sleep in bed instead of on the couch.  But that will probably change when I order a new seat and AreaP full exhaust.

Firt poll I've ever seen that is made to switch your vote, Hillarious! That is what makes this site the best forum I've ever read, you guys are great. So Cal, your list you made actually caused me to re-vote, as I was reading your list I thought..."oh, forgot that, and that..." Keep it up guys, you actually make me feel normal and fiscally responsible ;D, Go Irish!

Close to $2K and I haven't even owned it long!  But to be fair- much of it was related to the necessary lowering so I could actually RIDE the sucker.

Gee, let's see...

Sargent Seat, Techmount for the GPS, GSG Slider kit, Phils rack, new headlight bulbs from Murph's, Stebel Compact "Truck" air horn, Grip Puppies, Custom Dynamics aux modulating brake light, Bags Connection "Trip" tank bag and QR mount, Fuzeblock aux fuse block, Prodjekt D radiator guard, Leo Vince Carbon.

The Zumo 450, J&M CB, Passport 8500, Givi V46 trunk, Pirates Lair passenger backrest, Kisan Path Blazer headlight modulator, are from the former V-Strom, so they don't count count as new farkles.

Wow...reading this thread made me realize how much I've actually spent, and I've only had this bike since November lol.  Sargent seat, Real Time reflective kit, Projekt D full slider set and rear fender eliminator, PCV, BMC air filter, Area P slip-on (couldn't wait 6-8 weeks for full kit), GoCruise throttle lock,  Michellin PR2's, and Scorpion EXO-1000 helmet (the helmet counts as a farkle because the Connie's tendency to hit triple digits unintentionally made my HJC helmet bobble a lot).  I've probably left something out.  Risers from Murph's...that's what I forgot.
