10 worst motorcycle guages

[texas-ss-tornado]

The new VMAX is on this list? How do 2nd gen owners feel about this, agree or disagree?

Meh... Not crazy about it to be honest....
But top ten worst.. hummmm.
I also like the Busa gauges....
Maybe I'm the crazy one!

I like #3 - except for the wood grain.
I've got no problem with the 2nd gen. max instrumentation - after all, it's a modern bike.
But for the 1st gen, and all other '70's-'80's designs - I like analog displays. And dual shocks. And balanced exhausts. And big-ass round headlights.
Guess I'm a "traditionalist"
But the bottom line, as always - whatever makes the owner happy.
Cheers!

Considering that they don't quite get the concept of the shift light, well.....

The only one that I didnt like was the ER-6n. I didn't think the rest were all that bad.

Worst gauges,

Anything from
The 80's having any sort of LCD display content in a shitty plastic box that sun fades shortly after birth.

The old V65 gauges came
to mind

If they don't get the external shift light in a Vmax then they don't get the Vmax at all.

Be about like criticizing the air snorkel intake going up the A-pillar of a hard core jeep
