Oh ABOSOLUTLY the HD Ambient air temp gauge! The one that comes standard on the Ultras. How does anyone ever get by without one of these? Rates right up there with a rain gauge!

Oil pressure and volts. Save a lot of headaches with those two.

+1 on the air temp gauge. I always enjoy the heads up I get from it when the weather changes

Oil pressure & volts are the two I need. Don't need temp or fuel guage. Trip meter works fine and my brain can tell me the temp. I'd rather have a good ol'e fashion clock and an oil temp guage.

How about a "bubble" level so I'll know if I forgot to put the kickstand down.

I really like the Street Glide. With the speedo, tach, air temp. fuel, oil pressure and volt meter I think I'm covered.
