Haha, yea the other night actually. It didn't seem overly bright to glance down at the speedo. I could see all of the numbers backlit on it. I think the forks get in the way of the light and the underside of the cluster gets the brunt of the rest of it. I'll pay more attention to how it looks the next time I take it out at night. Was riding the blue bike, so I can't comment on the red, not to mention red grabs a bit more of the wrong attention.
