My "Mid-life Crisis "

Indiana


« on: October 13, 2014, 08:17:01 PM »

Just finished adding an Auto Meter Voltmeter from Jegs , fabricated the mount out of flat aluminum stock and installed a blue LED bulb to match my speedo and tach lights. Also installed a pair of Kuryakyn #7006 transformer passenger floorboards made for an GW1800 , modified my old Cobra brackets to mount them with.

Does the upper part of the passenger set up get in the way when you are feet down?

The passenger floorboards are shown in the pic with the footrest extended..it folds down  , then the boards fold up. Amazingly when the footrest is extended it doesn't hit my legs , that was my biggest fear with them.My wife is a bit lon-legged so she can't really stretch her legs out with the footrest , but she does like the alternate foot position just to change up during longer rides.

Well done on the mods...

Visors are from Chrome Shack , I will find the part # and post it.....After removing the Cobra boards, I had to trim the floorbord pivot mount (about 3/4") off of the Cobra mounting bracket , then drilled it to allow bolt to mount thru rear mount hole in Kuryakyn Transformer. Drilled another small hole in front of mounting hole to run bolt thru to keep boards from " rotating".

The Auto Meter guages are illuminated?  Didn't know that.  You're giving me ideas.   cooldude

What blue bulb did you use......and what bulbs do you have in your speedo and tach?

BF.. They are from superbrightleds.com Part Number:194  WLED-BHP ( UPC: 847781009088)...I tried different colors but really love the blue lights best . I got the Auto Meter  Voltmeter #105-1391 & Chrome Cup #105-2203 thru Jegs.I also did the Rebel Indicator harness upgrade to the indicator lights a couple years back, all I can say is WOW.. no question turn signal indicator is flashing , almost need sunglasses. If you do it , put the stock bulb in the High beam indicator ..if you use a brighter bulb it causes too mkuch reflection off of the windshield at night.Just search" Using a Rebel Indicator harness" on the VRCC

I like how they resemble the OEM guages..I am going to see if I can find a visor to match the Chrome Shack ones that I have on the Tach/Speedo.

Installed this one six years ago and it has performed flawlessly.  Great addition.
