New here, just ordered my first bike!

Hi all! I'm new to the forms and just ordered my first bike for $1300! Got a Taotao TBR7 and I am beyond excited for it to arrive! Ordered a helmet, jacket, gloves, a new carb and chain for it. Do you guys have any other recommendation for upgrades I should make to it?

Congrats!

I just received the one I ordered and just got it assembled.
Since I had to do that, I did all upgrades from the start.
I did the ebay exhaust,
lowered the front forks and changed the fork oil, and lowered the rear shock,
I grooved out the tamperproof screws on the stock carb and changed out the I think 88 jet to a 110 jet,
I changed front and rear sprockets to 17/42 and put on JT 428 HD chain,
Changed out stock to NGK spark plug,
I installed a mini tach/temp/rpm gauge.
I also bought aux lights for the front I still have to wire up and install.
Also I need to flush and change out brake fluid.

Still waiting on paperwork, so I have just been up n down my driveway the last few days.
I will be mainly commuting to work 6mi roundtrip, so probably all road use.

btw, where did u order from?
