Cool work, Ernie.  I'm with 71cb750.  I like the skulls.  The repeating skulls is a cool design -- did you try that design with a bright white scale (mebbe like the one just above it)?  Would that show the skull and crossbones better?  The one with the skull at the bottom got me thinking about how it might be cool to have a scale that has a skull at the end of it -- around the 120 MPH mark.

Would it be even cooler if you made it like an airspeed mach indicator?  That is, instead of "10" you'd have "0.1".

Ernie- you rock man!

My favorite is the white background, but stock looking font, increment by 10's, etc.  Subtle, but kicks BUTT!

I think way too many of you guys speed while riding your motorcycles.

I'ts not your fault though - it's because you don't look at your speedometer often enough.

Here is my suggested cure.
