Thanks guys...

Deryk, it is kinda cool, has an ODO on the left, clock as you can see in the middle, ride time above that, and your speedo to the right. Spot on accurate too.

Spicy, I keep forgetting about plexiglass, that would have been so much better (easier at least) than the 12ga steel I used. I will keep you in mind for my next misadventure.

Only real bummer in this all, I found a guy selling a vapor NEW and un opened for $80 the other day. Those are the way to go, but this is a low budget build until I get the ol' lady to ride/like it, then it will be on. Custom paint, custom everything, nothing but the best for her...

At about $399, it's a bit outside of what i could sneak past the wife, though

I got mine from a guy on Craigslist, but they are sold at any motorcycle dealership.
