Hi All,
        Getting very close  to the end of my project.. pictures will follow at the end .. but if any of you have Daryl's 6 degree triple tree's  and have fitted the Motosen gauges (I have gone for the five set up ) that's 3 in the triangle between the speedo & tacho and 1 on each out side of them.. ..
       my  problem is the 2 outside ones seem to be very low and can only just be seen.. which is rather defeating the object.. so if any of you have fitted them and got over this problem, some info or pics would help..Cheers recall

Sounds like ya might need a slight adjusment on the guages mounting strap to take back what the tree took away.

Bend them carefully.

I think it might take a bit more that a tweek... also could do with a few suggestion's as to what to do with the cables .. as they are looking a bit messy for my liking..

Extend the tach/speedo up/back toward the bars. The Motosens units will be higher and more visible too. Existing cable length will determine how high they can go.
On the last valk, I raised the tach & speedo just because I thought it looked better (to me it did). On the now Valk I will be raising them because the tall risers that came on it actually get in the way. Don't really like them on the bars so that isn't an option for me.
