I have the same gauge on my bike. I like it. I bought the gas cap to match.

Tommy,
Did you find the grey wire to be somewhat tight?
I will get the gas cap also.

Yeah. The directions blow. If I remember correctly, that wire got routed some other way. Once I figure that out, it was easy. I like that gauge alot. I especially like how you can see the LED in the daylight.

I rode to work, home, and out yesterday and last night. I wake up to about a 1/4 inch of snow on the ground, and snow falling. It looks like frickin' Christmas. Welcome to Denver!

I'll bet Denver is beautiful in the Spring and Summer but I'll also bet that riding season is short. It's getting colder here but the weather is still pretty good for riding. Hang in there Pay, nothing lasts forever.

Right now, I'm watching Christmas with the Kranks and laughing my a$$ off.

Actually, we have a longer riding season than you would think. I never put my bike away for the winter, and with one notable exception, I have been able to ride in every month. The Fall is a great time to ride into the mountains. We did a 170 mile trip two weekends ago. A month of so ago was a good time to ride up and see the colors change. If you're into that sort of thing.

Around $50k but certainly eye-catchers. Uses HD motor and automotive 5 speed tranny capable of 125 mph and each is hand-built in Seattle.

They also make Liberty Sidecars on premises. I'm lucky enough that they're just three blocks from my work so I get to see some of the amazing side-hacks that roll out of there occasionally.
