Yeah...I was not going to put the $$$ into it yet...but now it is another thing!
![]() It felt good...just sucked having my options be 1) visor up and eyes watering or 2) visor down and feeling pretty blacked out. Quote:
The turn signal light I am pretty sure is just the bulb because the high beam, oil, and neutral indicator lights work fine. ![]() Quote:

pop the glass, make a custom needle.... if you were trock id say draw a dong, put it on a paper clip and theres your needle, paint the face to look like a man-ass.....cant think of what you like.
oh thats right, you like to drink-paint a tiki hut on the face, make the needle a mai tai! somethin like this idea...click

So I got the bike inside and checked it again...there is the slightest hint of a light that comes on one third of one of the gauges. But it is orange so it lights up nothing.

I think you need to just KNOW by the sound how fast you are. I mean, after my speedo cable was snapped in the housing I just rode without a speedo for a while. It's alright with cars around, it's just when you are going through a residential zone without another around to figure it out that sucks.
Ebay is your friend.

![]() I would rather just switch the speedo to a digital one. Although I have been trained by that thing and don't look at it much anyway.

Once you get your technical issues worked out, you might find riding at night even more fun and relaxing than daytime riding. That's really how I got much of my seattime in the beginning -- later at night, when it was cooler and traffic was lighter. You'll get to where you really enjoy an evening ride for the fun of it, I promise.
