Vstrom 1000 dash plate

thingiverse

Made up a custom dash plate for switches and other essentials for my 2006 DL1000 motorcycle. To create this dash plate, I had to drill one hole in the top triple clamp and tap it M6x1. The gear indicator is simply stuck in place using 3M VHB adhesive. I am including Sketchup files so you can modify or adjust the switch holes as needed. The prototype shown in the picture was printed with PLA, but I plan to use ABS for my final unit. I'm considering making some changes to incorporate a cable guide, as the original small wire cable guide doesn't fit well with this design. Version 2.0 is in development and will be centered around those waterproof switches from Aliexpress.
