purty snazzy!!!

I like it a lot. I think you could sell them. Where do I send the money?

[PBJ]

Excellent job. Very professional looking. I think Don"s right there's money to be made with those.

[V7Goose]

That is absolutely the most logical place to put them. I just couldn't bring myself to remove the cassette and modify the fairing. No valid reason, just something weird in my brain that said I had a feature that came with the bike and wanted to keep it! Wonder what I'd a done if it came with an 8-track?

Now that is what Yama should do to replace the Lame cassete deck that NO ONE uses.

 

how much and do you make house calls?

[1sttenor]

That is sexier than socks on a toad! Full write up on installing and corresponding pics will be posted when???

[Squidley]

just something weird in my brain

Boy is that an understatement!

The gauges look good there, nice job of thinking outside the box

[BoomerCPO]

That has to be the neatest mod I have seen done! Wish I had your talent.....Too bad ya don't work for Yamaha!

 

Boomer..........with more than a hint of green envy.

Nice Job, you are gonna have to show them off at the next Pa Meet n Eat. Craig

[Sailor]

Very nice, it is what Yamaha should have done. Send them pics.

[ediddy]

That is too cool. I wish I could do that to mine.

Where did you move the mp3 jack to?

[Freebird]

The MP3 cable just plugs into the back of the cassette. You can just unplug it and run it out with an extension cable from Radio shack. Many of us have done that already.

[Cougar]

Well at least I know what my next project will

be next winter.. *sheeesh* he had to come up

[jlh3rd]

i hate to make a promise and not keep it....but i'll try to do a write up ...sometime.....

a lot of the credit goes to goose as he had a write up for the gauges he installed

you can get these at an auto parts store....i ordered mine because i wanted electrical, not mechanical...and they cost double and only available in these colors and from this co. only.............i'd install mechanical knowing what i know now..........and white gauges would look better, which you can get in white, if they are mechanical...these are the 11/2 " size.... ..........

[Cerviperus]

Fine job, sir. Looks very nice. That is definitely something I would have loved to have on my Venture.

[AmnChode]

Very nice and professional looking ....Looks like a possible new project for me, although I would want to swap out one of the gauges for a tach...hmmmmm
