If I had 'only' £150 to spend on the ZXR ('cos lets face it, £150 aint that much in the grand scheme of things) I'd probably go for service items.
e.g. brake pads/ braided lines, chain and sprokets, oils, filters, plugs, decent set of rubber ect... anything the bike will benefit from mechanically. You will get alot more out of your bike this way, rather than spending all the money on one bit of cosmetics.
Not that I'm against making a bike look good, it just generally takes more money to upgrade cosmetics than to keep you bike mechanically sound.

Scottoilers only make a mess if you got them up too high, it seems that people think thier chains arent being oiled unless thier wheel is covered in oil then they moan about the mess.
