Only you can decide what you should buy next. If I were you i'd ride it until parts wear out. These other folks have probobly never ridden the bike. Ride it until you find a part breaks or is limiting you in some way, then upgrade it. You'd be spending money for no real reason if you did otherwise. Having said that, personally I would get your forks serviced and buy some XT brakes. New grips (I'd go with  odi ruffians), and new tyres (maybe dmr motos, but don't know what kind off riding you do  Wink) will make your bike feel 'newer'.
