I am going to install a voltmeter gauge on my 570. Has anyone here installed a 2" analog gauge in the headlight pod? I am wondering if there is enough space under the pod to accomodate the gauge without hitting the handlebars. I have seen pics online, and it appears workable (on a 500 anyway) but before I dive in I am seeking some first hand accounts.

If anyone has any specific recommendations for a 1.5" as opposed to 2" voltmeter gauge (not even sure if anyone makes one) I’d be interested in that too. I am aware of the wide array of digital voltmeters, and am still teetering on just getting a Koso ultra slim digital voltmeter gauge (google it, I couldn’t get the amazon.com link to work properly) mounting it with double side tape, and calling it a day. But I like the idea of being able to monitor electrical load and behavior of an analog needle, as well as the more professional look of an in-the-pod install.

Ideas? I’m sure the forum here is ripe with DIY’ers who are proud to show me their gauge setups. If I can successfully fit a 2" gauge in the lower corner of the pod, I just may install a water temp gauge on the opposite side as well…

Thanks
