It doesn't fit in with the mostly flat black thing you have going on. If there were other gloss black items stratigically placed on the bike to tie things together then maybe it would work. But to just plop a not so good looking gloss black part on top of that bike looks desperate. It just doesn't go. But that's just me.

I like shades of black. Gloss your front end. I don't like spokes. I do not care for the cover.
You may want to look at a gloss black Crossbones/Slim dash. It has the look of a modern Cats Eye dash.
I just installed this dash on my Lo and smoothed out the center seam on the tank, no leather. It looks clean and slick.
Nice build.

i just shipped off the headlight, triple tree, lower fork legs and a bunch of misc brackets nuts and bolts to all get powder coated gloss black.

Different strokes for different folks, so they say. Keep going.
Is that oem speedo console stock, or was it painted or plastic-dipped? If oem black and you're thinking of selling it, let me know.
