An easy-to-read digital LCD gauge cluster includes a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, multiple trip meters, and more. The dual-lens LED headlight gives the front end a modern, cutting-edge look while still projecting plenty of light on the road for visibility. This is a big value in naked street fighter bikes,.
