The deflectors are Memphis Shades custom lower ones that I got
from JP Cycless part # 750-350 at $24.99 usd per pair. I took
Out one of the screws in the plastic housing and got a stainless
Steel one about 3/4'' longer. I drilled one hole in the middle
Of the plastic and use black Velcro on the other side to help
Hold it. It handles the high speed great and blocks the cold air
From your upper legs and knees. These are a generic part
For any bike to mount on the forks however i adapted them
To the scooter. They have nine differant colors and I thought
Yellow might look good with gold but my wife talked my into
The black and it blends in great I think. I just put a 9.6 amp
Hour small deap cycle battery in my bag and run the plug
Out to use my electric jacket liner when its cold. I just
Recharge it when I'm done riding. The battery is small
And light at just a few lbs. I also used a fender washer
To help with the screw to hold the deflector on place.
With the SS screw to cover more service area to keep
The deflector stable and tight to the housing.

what is the specifications for the iridium spark plug, and where did you get it?  Is it equivalent to the OEM spark plug?  How did you verify the specs are good?

I just took the OEM number of the spark plug from the owner's manual and off the original spark plug and cross referenced it to a NGK Iridium plug form their website to match it for an equivalent plug. I then installed it and it works great. If you need the part number I can get it to you. This is from the NGK website for the spark plug I used : Laser Iridium® spark plugs provide superior ignitability and long service life.  Smallest tip diameter available Iridium / Platinum surfaces ensure slow wear rate providing stable idle, superior anti fouling, improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions

Laser welded Iridium center electrode tip
Platinum disc welded to backside of ground electrode provides long life
Trivalent Metal Plating for superior anti-corrosion and anti-seizing
Faster starts and quicker acceleration
Better fuel economy and lower emissions
Best OEM Iridium spark plug available
Original Equipment Manufacturer approved design
