indicators: easy, but pricey. the standard loom has all the wiring. just get mini ones from Hein Gericke/wheverer: £20. you also need the relay and its rubber band: £55. if you give Dave Silver 2 weeks to get it for you, it'd be £40. you could try a relay from another bike, of course. the relay mounts behind the headlight surround.
footrests? pillion? good on ya! the handling will be awful, though! if you want a stiffer rear spring, talk to K-Tech. they made some specials for me and this spring is awkward cos its tapered to clear the swing arm. I'm not sure carrying a pillion will be legal, but that's your lookout. I'd recommend upgrading the front disc for safer stopping.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
