I don't think so, but I'll start you off and others can add to it...

1. Free spirits tensioner
2. Crash bungs on the axles
3. Reflectors on the forks removed
4. Stainless exhaust (Albert/Remus/Stealth etc.)

Of course, there are all the servicing needs of the bike, see my 10k service thread to get an idea of what is worn out at 10k. Plus, depending on mileage, and if your bike is pre08, an oil pump gear change could be worth looking into...

Why the oil pump gear change? Is it something I may need to look at soon?

There's a fitting guide in the 'How To' section and you could buy from me if I did mail order, which I dont, or your 'engineer' could turn one up on his lathe :)
