Awesome work! Inspiring me to pick up a project bike for this winter.
That tank needs to be a more flashy color than blue to match the rest of that cool bike, maybe a red or silver base with touches of gold, black, and silver from the parts on your bike.

If I was made of money I'd spend the extra coin on Motogadget goodness.
The Acewell works ok. Lights up in blue and looks pretty cool at night. The readout can look a little IZ_ with vibration and angle you look at it from. Otherwise it works pretty well.
I still have to work out a couple of kinks though:
1. Blinkers
2. Speedo (I lost the magnet but I'm thinking of picking one up from a bike shop)
Put together some blingy oil lines today.
Now I need to replace that starter line with a longer one that routes away from the belt cover. Should make it look cleaner.

Ouch.
When did the price go up?
I think I picked mine up for $170 or so, shipped.

Thats when elecrosport was selling them, now baja designs is the US retailer, they jacked the price up to 230. I won't touch it at that price. The day I went to buy it was the day I found out they switched retailers and the price shot up.

No you dont, it is easily rerouted round the other side of the cylinder head, just unbolt it from the starter and carefully trace it up to where it branches off the loom and push it through the frame above the head and pull it down the other side where it'll will just reach the starter again.
I did this with my SC though have yet to the monster as well, perhaps this winter.

Yep, the starter lead is plenty long to re route it.
