Indeed. I really like the way it looks. Although those mini gauges look good too. Hmmmmm....

I'm interested in the mount, but also wanna keep my Triumph flyscreen that I've trimmed down per D9's instructions. Does the flyscreen still fit with the lay flat mount?

Salt -

Plenty of clearance on the bracket for use with the Triumph fly... and looks good with it! Perhaps not as dramatic a difference using the fly as going naked - that's where the change is like night and day. Bracket works with the Dart as well...

Good pics HiVel, thanks!

Cheers,

D9

Nice bike HiVel.

Is that the NB sport lighting kit you have?
If so how do you like it.

yep-NB sport light kit . Had to put spacers on front turn signals. I used big ol nuts, will put some better (nylon?)
ones later if I continue to run naked -the flyscreen fits fine with the layflat instrument bracket but you lose the dramatic effect of the repositioned instruments. They do look good!

Bonniesaltrat, I have the lay-flat bracket with the fly screen too. It fits fine, although the fly screen diminishes the overall effect. I still like it, though.
