The only gauge I check on is the fuel.

Good job on those. They look newer than the bike now.

nice....well done!

By the way....the faces are glass, plate glass and break easily. I dropped one. I cut a new one with a straight line cutter, but I don't recommend it.

Were they crazed or just water spotted?

Must have been water spots. Strange pattern for water spotting though.

Those really look great.

The speedo and tach looked ok until I cleaned up the 4 small gauges. I'm going after the speedo and tach too.

This is a vid for removing the bezel from a speedo. Same way for all the gauges.

Sorry I missed this. Cd polish = compact disc polish.
