If we are voting, this one gets mine.  ;)

Yeah I would buy products from Anubis Gauge Works. But I don't believe we get a vote.

how difficult are these to get printed? are you doing large batches?

would one-offs, special orders be possible? y'know, kinda like "vanity" gauges...

At this time we are not doing one off's. We could though, but the price goes up as there is a $30 set up fee from the printer plus the costs of the gauge. SoO..... while we could do them they might be expensive. Usually I am doing a batch of 10 sets at a time (mixed lot). It is not hard to have the stuff printed but they lead time is sometimes goofy.

I see you have em for the 500. Will those work on a 550? If not, will you be offering them for the 550? I have the ugliest cracked faded crappy gauge faces that you've ever seen.

If yours are the larger gauges, then yes they will work just fine. Please do double check the markings though.

Here are a few shots of gauges before and after. I was kinda torn on his website between the white and the black gauges, especially since there were no pics of the black gauges. But i'm pretty damned happy with these!

Those black gauges are spectacular. I have a couple questions though. Do they show up well at night? Is there any bleed through of the originals either in day light or with back lighting?

No clue. Haven't had em on yet, just got them done, and the bike doesn't have a battery,  but I did hold the material that it is printed on isn't thin, I held it up to the sun and didn't get any bleed through.

These will create more of a halo lighting. This can be lessened with the use of LED lighting which is much brighter.

Nothing that new yet. I am just working through the older 500's and 550's.
