If you sell it and you run into someone like me who prefers as stock a bike as possible when buying used, those parts will get pennies on the dollar out of my pocket.
Aftermarket mods that make sense to me include comfort oriented items to make your level of comfort higher so you can ride longer and more comfortably. Look at endurance racing bikes, that's a big focus as well as performance.
Suspension, standard these days works very well for 90% of the riding done but when spent a reasonably priced aftermarket set will improve the bike but il est trés chere.
Pipes are just for sound only imo, no real (world) performance gain. Buy a slip-on and save some bucks if you don't care for the stock sound.
