3d printed a mock up for the gauge mount to fit the motogadget gauge.
Fit great so i'm gonna have one made from aluminum and get the gauge on order.

Few minor things accomplished; spent a lot of time on the other project bikes in my garage but hoping to get back into this one this coming weekend.

side cover grommets installed, mocked up body work one last time before storing it in boxes until the engine and exhaust and wiring is complete.

ended up going a different route with the header set-up; originally was going to use the OEM one from my zx10 but ran into fitment and complexity issues so ended up snagging a titanium one for the the 03-06 z1000 for $100 off ebay and got it fitted but will have to do some fab to make the muffler section work.
