What guage did you use in your fairing for the air shocks? Is it the Viair 150 psi guage? And what color does it illuminate in? Does it match the stock guage color?

It's the Viair 160. It is a little bright than stock. Looks pretty darn good though. It will be the "new" gauge of the month to look at. I just noticed that it's powered through the headlight which flashes with my security.. oh well.

I recommend 1/8. Thats what comes with the shocks and it gives you a nice slow dump with no muffler. What compressor are you getting? Does your bike have abs?
