New gauge faces...

[Freechance]

Well just got my gauges back with blue leds installed..i also had some gauge faces installed..im really not sure if i like the gauge faces..they look kinda cheesy..i thought that when i bought them but decided they might look better installed..
So is this a yes or a no, on these gauge faces?????

This is what i had before..



Maybe the new gauges will look better with the sun in my eyes..

No. Doesn't look right. But it's an appearance mod, so just depends on what you want.

Really pleased with mine. Tough mod to do, but love the result.

I got the same chromed 220's on my GENII and have no issues with reflection.

I really like the way those light up, but i didnt want white gauges..if i had any other color bike those would have been great..i tried to find gauges that glow like that without the white faces plates but didnt see anything i liked..

With some time and effort you can always design your own.
Old school Rhythm quote. Moe time than money Ill do it myself. Back then everything was from scratch. Here is the handywork of an OLE SCHOOL G!...

Hand made. We made these at Rhythms house back in 2001. Talk about being innovative. The hardest parts was RSD'n these puppies. At the time when we made these in 2001 there were no indiglo gauges available for the Hayabusa, so we made our own.

After that, we shared it with the .org. miss those days!

Yeah Im not a fan, the numbers on the 220mph gauges seem cluttered together. I had glow gauges intstalled on my 03 and they were a serious pain to install. Then 1 day the fuel pod gauge stopped glowing, talk about annoying I just bought a set of 220mph guages instead, tired of dealing with the nonsense

I don't think you can buy 220's for a Gen II, should come standard

Ohhh Please!! Can you imagine all the people swearing they can hit 220 mph on a stock GENII when they didnt know how to calibrate a speedo healer....

I am running a 30% - offset with my 46t rear sprocket and 220 faceplate..

186X30%=55.8 MPH + 186= 241 MPH!!

Helzzz yeah I can hit 180 mph in 3rd gear!!

I'll give them an ok. Not bad but not really great just ok.


Does anyone make a digital gauge replacement for the hayabusa?
Ice I love the homemade stuff. Nice work.

Well theres a lot of different places..if your wanting glow gauges go to bluegauges or pashnit..but they only come usually in white..if your wanting custom gauge faces webslinger does custom airbrush..he can do just about anything..
