Hi Mckayt,

I think that it looks really sharp, but I'm concerned that the added detail of the CF weave may be a bit distracting when giving just a quick peripheral glance at the gauge/info panel. Usually, I prefer an instrument panel to be plainer, and to let the gauges stand out. I remember that the silver engine turned finish on my '77 Trans Am's instrument panel was particularly distracting.

Please let me know if you find it to be a distraction or not...I already have the fuel cap CF piece installed, and LOVE it, and I'm considering the tach cover too.

Thanks,

TTAWD

Thanks Mckayt!

I have the Tach cover for my bike and I really like it. I think it looks great. I've got a few compliments on it. It’s not a distraction when looking at the gauges either. Installation takes about 10 minutes. I was slightly disappointed because the tach cover is fake carbon fiber. If you order any other carbon fiber from Suzuki (like the tank pad or gas cap cover) it is real carbon fiber with a coat of polyurethane.

Yeah I can't agree with you more. Had it on my bike but took it off because it just looked out of place with all the other real carbon fiber i had on it.
