Any issues? It's the first set I've got of these being installed! They do look good and that really isn't a biased opinion!

No issues at all Les,
I had to figure the project would need a new upper brake line and banjo bolt sending unit since they eliminated the big ugly splitter and brake lite sensor combo unit. Very small price to pay all considered

Anyone who wants to retain the factory stock front end should love to have a set of these.
When you see this thing from the front , side or seat they just scream OH YEAH !!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: Cant wait to show them off this weekend at the show to Ron Finch, He will give me his evil grin and say Wheres Mine !!!!
Thanks Les , Your a real Friend

I'm on the hunt for a boost gauge that has lighting, mechanical and outdoor/motorcycle/boat. The liquid filled ones are easily found but I want something cool and non digital.

Checkout Glow Shift Boost Gauges on the net. I found tons of super cool boost gauges that fit the description you asked for. 42 Dollars and up . Let me know what you think. It has me thinking about a new one too

I checked them out months ago. Those and that competing cheap brand I forget, same prices. I guess they are total shit, not accurate, etc. The Diesel truck guys were all over them and gave them the thumbs down every where I checked. Might have to go with auto-meter. There are good jap brands like greddy, apexi, defi, but they are $$$ and not water proof (nor is auto-meter but they are a 1/4 the price). Also those jap ones might actually get ripped off your bike because of their attraction and value.

OK I guess we rethink this one :blink:
I use a MR Turbo Gauge already and it works fine, just no pretty lights like you are looking for.
Thanks Dave

That's a good one, he sent me that when I was installing the autometer stuff on mine!
Dave, you got to polish those fins on the head! I was going thru the pics and it finally dawned on me, what is not right with those pics, I knew it wasn't the trees.
Took a while to see it and I remember talking to you about it. It does make a ton of difference.
btw, it is looking good!

I remember the other brand, Depo, I seen them in real life today and they were shit. Needle didn't even rest at 0 properly.
I will probly go with Autometer NV as I want the white face to match the other gauges.

You know what??? I really like those trees but I think now that you are sporting the rolex watch time to change a few other things like the seat and headlight.
