Topic: Are you Refacing or defacing your gauges PART II

[ElCheapo]

I just got some of the due south faces back. I need to make sure I have the right diameter for them. Does anyone have a caliper and a loose CB 750 face? They are all basically the same through the years as far as diameter goes. Soon as I have an exact diameter I will get a few few made and anyone who has a set the would like to Guinea pig on I will send for a nominal cost like $5.00 a set plus the tiny shipping cost for the test lot.

The ones I have back are very nice. And whats more is it will have a UV protective coating on it that will out live your bike. These buggers are tough, I have tried to damage them intentionally (with in reason) and have not succeeded.

These will be bad ass. Crisp SHARP, and UV protected. 

I just need to get a few photos of gauge faces so I can get the pantone numbers right. If anyone would like to send a nice 4X6 pic of thier gauges to Anubis Cycle, 517 N Park, Reedsburg, WI, 53959, this will give me a color base to go on. Emailing me a photo is bad as I loose the color in the translation.

I get 3.5310" or 89.69mm on a 78F2 speedo face.

I have some 550 gauges apart and can send one of those or are you just focusing on the 750?

We will be covering all of the gauge faces, right now we are focusing on 750. The 500/550 should be available about 1 week after I get the 750 stuff started. Seeing that I am doing a cafe racer 500 these gauges will get slipped to the front occasionally.

Thanks for the spec, I came up just a pinch small at 88.57mm

Is this project still alive?

Dusty has some gauge faces in the classifieds.  They are really nice.   I have them on my bike and my buddy has them on his.  He can make them look stock as well I believe.
