      Please let us know more about your bike like how many kms have you covered on it, any accidents, etc. A few modifications which you can carry out are changing the tyres, changing the headlight bulb with a brighter one. You can fix panniers and buy a tank bag to carry your luggage. In addition to that, you can invest on proper riding gear like a jacket, gloves, elbow and knee guards.

              Why on earth do you want to modify a splendor. It is best in its stock condition. If you want to prepare it for a long tour then that's another case. With preparation i mean tyres and stuff...

                      re overhaul: go to any decent mechanic and ask him to do a compression test. if compression is ok, you should be good to go with an air filter clean up plus carb clean up and appropriate jetting for altitude. other things like brakes and stuff of course.

                        There goes your answer. if the compression is okay then no need to rebore. As for other things you can get disc brakes installed, and when you are planning for a long ride keep a few spares handy like a spark plug, a tube, a handpump, cables, and invest in some good riding gears..
