Damn. No shit. Anyone who gets one of those and doesn't like the gauge cluster is welcome to swap gauges with my CBR600 F3.

Hell, on my old SecaII I rode for about 2 weeks with no gauge lights at all. I had to hit my brights so the blue light would come on and give me a little light so I could see my speed.

I'm wondering if insurance companies could be convinced that this is just a sport-tourer

I like the bike (minus the differnt headlamps).

Cluster looks good, but not the best. The 06/07 ZX10R looks better.
