Here's what I went and did today. I tore off another fugly OEM part, the air cleaner! I received a Kuryakyn Velociraptor in black. Very easy job and I think it looks great!
Next, I installed a pair of Powermadd handguards w/spot mirrors. I went w/a really clean looking mount and was really easy to install on the clutch side. The throttle side required cutting the mirror perch down the middle. I will do a little more trimming after I get them where I want them. I will post some pics of the mounts when I get a chance. Cheers! jevers

Those mods look great man, night and day difference with the air intake. Do you notice any difference in sound with it?
Yes, you can hear a hissing sound at idle, but seems to go away when you open the throttle. I think it sounds kinda mean! I changed it out hoping to get a little more legroom, but I only gained about 3" in front of and behind the original. I will post an update after the weather cooperates for a ride.

Are those the 34410 Sentinel handguards? Did you need to modify for fit or buy extra hardware?
Those are the smaller Star ones. I also bought the Sentinels, but wasn't crazy with the way they mounted. I did cut half of the mirror perch off so it would mount close to the switch pod next to the throttle grip. I used the mount kit, sku number; 34452. Here's a pic or two.
