My Strada's a road bike and will, most likely, stay a road bike, but that'll not stop me from trying to upgrade (rather than simply modify) with genuine performance parts along the way.

Carbon and magnesium parts are always the desirable items, yes?

I suppose a magnesium swing-arm, that'd accept a standard axle and wheel would be the ultimate, but is well beyond any budget that I could consider.

I've been unlucky trying to find a magnesium top-yoke, that's be compatible with my 'road' specification forks/offset.

Proper period 'Corse' rearsets would be nice, along with the correct heel plates.

A 'Corse' dash (I've now found pictures of Foggy and Corser bikes, that have an ol' analogue setup). Not sure how I could set that up for road use (I'd need to sneak a speedo and some idiot lights in somewhere)

I've been on the hunt for the parts that allows for the 'race' style seat mounting. I've got a spare single seat unit, but don't have the carbon bracket for the top of the sub-frame.

Oh! Nearly forgot the part that I've been wanting the most! A carbon fibre airbox, but the type that has the removable side panels (as was seen on the race bikes).

Carbon fibre velocity stacks/bellmouths are also on the wish list...

That's just the things that spring to mind, before I think about another shock, brakes, etc etc...
