Default Boost gauge

For all those boosted in this section what are you using for your boost gauge mounting? I am going with a digital gauge (2 1/16) from VEI, same one I run in my SRT-4 and Lightning. But not really finding much for mounting it. I do have an aftermarket batwing/stereo setup but I don't want to drill a hole in it to mount a gauge. Looking for a handle bar mounting solution, so please let me know what you got.

Nobody runs a boost gauge on their scoot here? Please post up some pics of what you have setup, it might give me some fab ideas on mounting, etc? I see trask has a slick boost gauge setup, but the downside it doesn't show vacuum. And for me vacuum is a huge part of boost leak testing, etc. Anybody?

On my RoadGlide we just replaced that worthless ambient air temp gauge with a boost gauge.

If I was going to put one on the handle bars I would have went with a 1" gauge rather than the dash style of the 2 1/8". Probably can find mounts for them easier also.

I replaced my air temp with a air/fuel ratio gauge
