I was going to check in with my dealer this afternoon to see if they had an updated ship date on my 520. I had seen a bunch of blue ones delivered for folks on the forums recently, so figured it might be close. Well, they beat me to it and called me this morning. A quick trip during lunch and I have a new toy at home.

Now time for the accessories. Strongmade bumper on the way. Winch on the way. Honda roof is on backorder with no anticipated date, so I'll be looking aftermarket there. Debating windshields. No shortage of things to spend money on. ;)

Now that's a good looking machine, bare but still nice looking 😍
If you are not set on a Honda roof, you might consider EMP they have a very low profile which I needed to fit inside an enclosed trailer. When I got mine back in 2016 aluminum was the only choice, I think they also offer a plastic roof now as well.
As for a windshield, I think it's hard to beat glass. In addition to the windshield wipers, I also added a windshield washer pump and reservoir.
Oh, and you are correct - No shortage of things to spend money on - only limitation is the bank account o_O

Funny you should mention EMP. Just ordered their aluminum roof last night, after much internal debate over Honda OEM, EMP plastic roof, and the EMP aluminum. The aluminum one looked sharp, and the price was right.
