    I hopped in it to drive home from work and noticed one of the bulbs behind my dash burned out...I can't see half of my tach and all of my temp gauge. I really don't want to tear my dash apart so I'll wait until another burns out to change everything to LED.

    Nope! A good smack on the dash does wonders. I've got a bulb out too. It always comes on when I smack the dash

    Ha, that happened in my old Dakota. I never did anything about it, though. Only the lights behind the tach went out and the truck was an auto, anyway. Even when I had the dash apart to replace the heater core, I didn't bother. Guess that makes me pretty lazy. :laugh:

    Have you done a test fit of two bikes mounted? Do the handlebars get in the way of eachother?? I've been debating on throwing two of those on my toolbox, but have been too busy to measure

    Looks awesome BTW!! :cheers:
