Re: CB 550 K Cafe Racer Conversion #speedo v2
I know. The lights are not that intensive as shown in the pics. Because of the dark my cellphone camera had a long exposure time.
It's bright, but not too bright in the dark.
The problem was, that a single LED did not spread the light enough to show the entire display correctly. When the bike's finished I'll test it driving in the dark. If it would be too bright then, I can easily open the gauge and connect a small resistance to decrease the intensity a bit since the LEDs still work properly around 10,5 Volts with estimated 2/3 to 1/2 of the current brightness.
