$300 will buy you some MSD ignition stuff,which is always good to have for now and in the future for a bigger motor.

Can I pick all of the above. I like it all, trail riding and seeing the sights, hitting some hills and feeling that sense of accomplishment when you crest over the top. Watching others hitting hills that I can't for fear of crashing and hurting my back again (5 surgeries in three years sucks). Sitting at the campr fire talking with everyone after a good ride is great.

Get your heads ported and polished and maybe some chamber work to increase flow.

I also think the head work is a good idea. If you have some left get a lightened flywheel.

Dont buy any chrome for your motor if your going to use it ,holds heat.my cousin bought the whole chrome kit and the alternator pulley fell apart and cooked his motor.Buy some dual carbs you can get them to work on any size motor.
