Instrumentation is Good!-But Will It Work on a SERK?
« on: February 18, 2008, 02:36:08 PM »
Ya'll know I do things bass ackwards anyway! ::) ;D

I picked up HD's 2 pod Micro Gauge Bracket and 1-1/2" Micro Gauges for Oil Pressure and Voltmeter. HD states their gauges won't work with a windshield bag. As usual, I don't believe them. What do ya'll think? Fit, or not fit? Looks to me like these will work OK.

Also, my oil temp dipstick still works fine. But not very reliable from what I've been hearing. I always liked a voltmeter too. If your dipstick craps out, would you replace the voltmeter with an oil temp gauge instead, and rely on the Battery Light?

Thoughts to ponder. As usual, pics of all this to follow after install. That won't be til after the new motor gets installed. What do you SERKer guys think? ;)

I agree, won't work with a fairing. But I think I can fit these little guys under the SERK windshield bag! ;)

That's just a beginning before long he'll have so much stuff on the handlebars he'll need a fairing to hold them all. ;)
