Those convenient threaded holes in either side of the engine down at the bottom and at each corner might be a good place to consider attaching some form of a custom-made aluminium bash plate/sump guard if you're doing some off-road riding. Keep in mind that they're only 6mm x 1.0 threads and therefore not the strongest bit of the bike. Perhaps rubber 'fuel pump mounts' might help to absorb some of the energy similar to what the early Airhead GS models used.
