The gauge looks kick a$$, the mp3 player slot just doesn't do it for me. The cavity looks too big and the mp3 player doesn't look integrated enough, but that's just me.

As usual, looks awesome. I'd only change the angle of the gauge to match the angle of the stock fairing gauges and sink it as low as possible...if possible.

OK, now that you say that I can see why it's that way. Will be interested to see it finished off.
