Turned it around in my garage - was raining when I got home from work.

Also took the time to remove my US and Don't Tread on Me Flags - they've been on the back since the 9-11 Ride to Remember from Baltimore HD.

Too bad. The weather here right now is really nice for riding. Should be nice for Bike Fest too. At least three runs coming up.

no,bro... it should come with a chrome bezel.. I was thinking of blacking out a little more so i ordered a $40 black bezel.. On my bike I think the black bezel just gave it an unfinished look. I originally had the kuryakyn trim ring on my OEM speedo. With my chrome fuel gauge and gas cap, I think the chrome trim ring gives it a more finished and matching look.. Theyre on ebay for between 20-30 bucks. ...BTW, youre gonna love the speedo. Along with a tach, you get volts, time, rpms trips, and my favorite, measurable 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times....

Jason, I love the speedo. Gonna wash my bike today as it needs it bad. Maybe oil change first. I think it's time for engine and primary.

I just recently removed my rear taillights to install my bags and man looks really clean when I take the bags off. Just have to use my hand signals but pretty bad a$$. I also took of my right mirror and hang the left mirror upside down. Next I was thinking to remove my belt guard. Does anybody have any pics and if any body done this what's your input on removing it.
