Blinded by my dash

RE: Blinded by my dash
I don't think I've gotten a glare from my dash. Every now and then I get a pretty bad glare off my bars or headlight. Sometimes I have to ride with one hand up blocking the glare so I can see. As others have said, I enjoy the fact that it glares like that because it means the bike is nice and shiny and has plenty of chrome. It's just cool. My opinion on that may change, however, if it causes me to crash...

Hows the quality of those inserts?
I was considering but was worried that its a sticker that may peel specifically if you ride in the rain much?

Rain isn't going to bother it.
MyTexas heat might.

RE: Blinded by my dash
About one week after my new 05 was delivered, I knew I had to do something about the chrome dash panel. The glare was driving me nuts. I ordered and installed the Harley kit, that was 18,000 miles ago and it still looks like new. If such a kit weren't available I was going to paint the thing flat black.
The only caveat is you have to clean the surface well before you put on the panel cover, and you had better position it right the very first time because once on, it is on for good.
I think the bike looks better with it than with the shiny panel.
