Anyone running thier S1 w/o the windscreen? I would like to see some pics of bikes with the wind screen removed and the gauges moved/replaced. Anyone have any pics?

T%he second pic, the angle is funny...but...

I know its an X1, but the forks, triples, and gauges are the same...

Should give you an idea..

Take a look in the Pics Thread.
There's pics of chase's gauges and another X1 with a really slick set up.

They are really just a set of driving lights, that I snagged from Pep Boys.

They have the Angle Eyes, and a Strobe in them.. but, really, they arent worth it.. the controller, as soon as it got wet, made those parts useless. Though, I suppose, if I took the time, I could figure out the switching system...

On my set up, to keep it simple, I run one buld as a low, with 55w bulb, and picked up a 100w for the other lamp. They are both H3 bulbs..

Not the best, but, a major improvement over the factory stuff.

Though, to be honest, I am likely going to switch out that dash, with a MotoScope Mini, set into the top bar clamp, and, replace the light with a V-Rod light...

I suppose you could mount the instruments on the bar clamp like a sportster?

Do the late model lightning upper bar clamps work with the upper tripple clamp of an S1?

I dunno... I have been asking that question..

I know the S2 would work, and its smooth..
