Tri Glide Gauge Faces

[ShapeShifter]

Dealer changed all gauges under warranty ,for those little streaks. Thats when he tried to go to the white face for me. Problem was, the "R" would not light up when in reverse. They tried everything & finally had to go with the stock black again. They come in a complete set even if only one gauge needs replaced.

My fault, since I stayed on the fence too long last summer, thinking should I or shouldn't bring it to the dealers attention.....well, the Warranty Ship sailed in the fall cementing that possibility. The little streaks are only visible when the light hits the speedo at a certain angle. I think about them then and when I'm on here, and read about it.

I've always thought the black gauge faces sucked. Hard for an old guy to see.

Interesting ... never thought about the reverse ... never done it on a trike ... just two wheelers. Kind of like the lighted controls ... HD did get wise and added the cover with the R, maybe they will start to offer white faced gages ... ... nah.

Do you have a source for this? ... sounds like an interesting winter project ... any idea of turn around times?

I didn't see anything for trikes. Got to have the backup light and the temp light on the new trikes.

I spoke with Frank with Harley Gauges. They do the switch on Tri Glides also. You just send in the gauges to him & it takes him a couple of days to switch out faces & he sends them back. He quoted me something like $475 for the set and led back lighting.

Can you pick the LED colors for the back lighting? I'm thinking red ... will go well with the black, and if I do get it painted white with black cherry ... wouldn't look bad there either.

Yes, you can pick the color.
