RE: The gauges at night.
#16



You got me thinking. I have not had my bike out at night yet. I did not know what the gauges were going to look like. Here is a 2013 for comparison. Each has their +x and -s. It seems as we get older everything comes downs to a trade off. Nothing is perfect, we all must compromise at some point, but I am still partial to the 2013 (probably because it is what I have), except for 5th gear - argh, soon to change.

I covered the headlight in the second image to reduce backlight off door for more accurate night view. Yes, it is 6am (haven't adjusted for dst). What else is there to do at that time besides the forum - lol. My tank is always FULL.

FYI, the old way of red lights at night is 100% wrong. The research is not the color that affects night vision, it is the intensity. More commonly, aircraft back lighting is a blue white color. Actual white light is the best if the intensity (brightness) is lowered.
