Default homemade dash

when i first picked up my Z I noticed the three indicator lights just dangling around with no home..

confused I made a post asking what i was missing and why it would be missing..

I then find out I have Pro taper handlebars which no longer allow the use of the factory dash piece to house the three indicator lights (temp reverse neutral)

I teamed up with another member on here and ended up creating these .080" thick stainless steel dash boards for use with aftermarket handlebars..i thought they came out sweet..

i sandblasted them and will hopefully be powdercoating them once I get my kit


if you would like to know how to make one PM me

What lifted is saying is you aren't the first to make them. One of our most active members, Spize, has been making these for quite some time. Now Spize has passed the torch and we another member(forget who) who is now producing them. In other words, you aren't the original. However members are always looking for stuff like this.

For the 09+, could you just replace the key hole w/ another indicator light hole? Maybe stagger the pattern even?
