The reason why I'm looking for a dash is cause I wanna loose the speedo cup on top of the tank. That dash looks perfect for thaT. Unfortunately that dash looks like a serious job not just s bolt on

The exile one is nice but it still has the speedo cup on there.

Wow, thanks for that link HD! I can't believe I never realized that Mica had a smooth dash.

For some reason I must have missed that thread cause I don't remember ever seeing his tank that color. He did a great job!!

Thanks again for that link. I hit him up, hopefully he'll get back to me.

I remember Mike saying one of the welders at powder pro might be able to fab it up

Did you ? 300-400 don't seem too bad.

Powder pro can make them huh? Wish mike was still around to ask him about it.

I asked rocket bob on their website. Still waiting on an answer from them.

Think the rocket bobs guy is named Pete.

This is the thread mike talks about powder pro. Post 14 or something like that.

Mike hasn't been on the forums in a while but he still has his rocker. I chat/txt him usually every 2 weeks or so.

Thanks Jo. I'll look through that thread. I sent him a pm for the holiday. I should have texted or called him instead.

He's probably trying to save money and that's why he's staying away from the forum lol. That's what I do from time to time. Lol

How come you never went through with the dash mod? Our speedos are obnoxious sticking out like they do stock. Never really noticed it until I slapped the clip ons on my bike.

I wanna revive this thread for those that are still interested in doing this. Or if someone does a search down the road.

I found this dude by my house that has a custom shop and does a lot of metal fabrication. He also puts in time at OCC. Supposedly he's really good. I just dropped off my dash at his shop and he says he can smooth it out with no problem.

Let's see what happens. Stay tuned.
