Default Progress on the Train
Been a while but it's almost done. I just have to wait for the new black flush mount gas caps to come in and the scooter is done. I have to aim the headlight and clean it up and it'll be ready for spring. Here's the new SE Tach with shift light on the new powder coated bars.

Let me know what you think.

Here's the light. Just scored a Mustang Solo Tripper on ebay for $113.00. Waited until the last 10 seconds and scored a win.

Looks good brother. I'm not sure if the double headlight is for me, but still cool. I like the bars and tach, looks tough.

Nice! I love the fatbob headlight on their. It really makes it different. I have never put any thought into a shift light but I like it.

It's actually a full time tach but it has the shift light on it. I will be set near redline and I doubt if it will come on to often

Thanks for the kind words.
