Those look really nice. 

resurrecting an old thread!

so I was finally able to get a hold of this guy in Germany and worked on a custom design with him based off a high-res scan (thanks He-Man for the gauge scan)

pardon the crappy camera phone pic (I can take better pics later)


as you can see, the gauge faces worked out nice but it took me quite a long time to get all this done because I did a bunch of other mods that were related to this (might as well do them all at once!) like clip-ons and replacing the cracked front plastic gauge covers, dual disc brakes, HID headlight, grind down stock upper triple.... long story short it was a lot of work, but I'm very happy with the gauge faces.

I have to show you how it looks backlit. 

I had the guy run off a couple of extra gauge cover sets if any one has the guts and patience to do this mod (PM me if interested).

Looks sweet! 

You have PM.

Looking good!

Another member was kind enough to make a few graphics for me with layers to adjust, so i have a few designs on my computer. nice work though.

i have been searching for white faces. if you still have extras id loooove to get my hands on a set. you have PM!

and thanks so much for thinking of your fellow DMFers when you were ordering  looks sick. nice work on the triple too (thats also on my list of todos)


mwahaha, only one extra set left!   

hey bones did they end up being single piece or two piece?

redial, just make sure you hae the right bike for hte gauges, i know when i discussed it with bones, there seems to be a alot of different guages out there.

It's a 2 piece, but the faces are exactly the same dimensions as the scan you gave me. the only thing redial will have to be careful about is to mark on the cluster the position of the "0"s of the old faces so the new ones match up (actually matching the cutouts to the digital windows should be good enough, but I like to be precise).

0s?

is this a vinyl overlay or a completely brand new piece?

oh. no it's a brand new piece, but they don't have the alignment tabs on the outside like the factory 2 piece gauge covers do.

PM sent. 

OH "O's as in the holes that they hook onto, i was thinking the zeros like 1zero 2 zero 3 zero (10,20,30 mph etc) 

How much does it cost to print these? i have them in a illustrator file.

!Wow! what an interest i am currently in the R&D Phase when i have one done, ill post up.

well see if i can get a digi cam working. My roomate left town with my mem card but if i find another one ill post up what i do step by step once i get the faces and have time to install

should be a fun little project while i plan the next
