Tough call. Myself, I would probably do a white face if the bike were to be painted a darker color. Black face for lighter colors.

My choice was black/black or black/chrome Personally, my choice too. But he asked what would be best for his bike. So for the rest of us the question was a bit of a crap shoot.

So I began searching for gauges for my build today. Now I'm torn as to what I want to use. One set are traditional white face that have a color change option for the numbers. The others have a tinted lens that makes it so when the key is off they will be blacked out, they also have the color options.

They look good I'm just not sure of how I want it to look yet... My general rule for face color is light face on dark paint and dark face for light paint. But I'm really liking the tinted lens idea for aesthetics even though I'm planning to paint the bike copperhead metallic. And I'm a bit ocd about things matching.

You need 3 3/8 " for speedo and tach. 2" for small gauges in HD batwing
