Dash lights
So I was wondering if anyone had switched out the bulbs in the stock dash with LEDs of a different color? Or maybe some advice on if this is even possible
Thanks guys |

Swapped mine for green and white ones, remember there is a film inside there that is to tinted blue so the colors can get a tad bit off. Looks cool as hell though. Don't change the blinker one as the led doesnt work in that slot.

This is mostly for incandecent bulbs, LEDs dont get hot enough to create a hotspot and burst when skin oils are left on it

Switched mine out 2 days ago for green LEDs from tutti racing I think. They are 194 type bulbs just do a google search. I changed the fuel, tach, speedo, and neutral just because they come in packs of 2 . There's a thread on this site how to remove fairings and the front end. Fairly simple took me an hour for the first time ever taking the bike apart.
