Gorgeous and beautiful, both. I really love those red/black combos.
You've got to proud of this bike. It's nicely accesorized to. Do you know what horn (manufacturer) that is? When I first saw this bike I thought it was that belong to Rich (maniac317) Check his out.

Very, very nice. My favorite T color combination. Wish you luck in your quest for a Cobra "freeway" bar, they really add so much to the looks of the
bike IMO as well as providing tip over protection.

Thanks for the compliments. The trunk box is a from Willie & Max, which is now part of Dowco. It's new, so I don't have a real opinion yet, except it's the only sissy-bar bag I could find that's 13" or less width (to clear the side bag lids) and has a rigid, leather look. I like it so far. Sometimes I ride with a cleaner look, so I unbolt the luggage rack, windshield, and change to the stock solo seat and it looks like a different bike. It
takes me about 20 minutes to do. If I had the stock sheild instead of the Clearview, it would take an hour due to the Cobra light bars.

Jerry....how about a nice shot of your instrument cluster. I see a couple of extra gauges there and you've peeked my curiosity.

Those are Formotion instruments that I go a long time ago.....a clock and a thermometer. The clock is excellent but the thermometer seems to never really show
the correct temperature. I'm considering replacing it with a Formotion compass.

Jerry,
I'm glad you mentioned the Thermometer not being very accurate, I've been wanting one for a while but if it doesn't read right I can save my money for something else. I have always thought Garmin should build a thermometer into their GPS units. 
I think Fred had a bit of trouble with this formotion compass. http://www.hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/8493 Tony |

Jerry,
I would not recommend putting a Formotion compass next to your speedometer unless your real name is Captain Wrongway Peachfuzz.

Jerry....thanks for the added photo showing the clock and temp guage. What a super clean installation! Are the gauges mounted using Formotion mounting
brackets? I have a handlebar mounted clock that I just love. I've often thought about a temp guage but my fingers and toes give me a pretty good indication
of what's going on. Cold is cold and Hot is hot!

Yes, I used the Formotion-provided brackets. I had to flatten them out a little by opening up the bend angle.
