Ok I took my fairing off to replace the speakers and noticed the 4 gauges background lights can be changed, but what about the main 2 gauges??? Can they be changed or is it alot more BS to go thru??


Thanks

That's a good question and the answer is yes I seen a guy at the gas station with Green light on his gauges it was just to cold to strike up a conversation. Umm seems like I may have to spend some more money.

Well the 4 outside gauges are just bulbs..easy and cheap, BUT the 2 main gauges I didn't see any easy/cheap bulbs to replace. I don't wanna experiment by taking them apart to find out either...LOL

Contact the guy at heavycycles.com

The large gauges are LED and the four others can take a colored #194 bulb. Heavy Cycles can do the LED conversion to just about any color for the large gauges. It will cost ya though.
