The motivation for this project was the fitment of some taller handlebars on the R65. Consequently the original padded dash bezel would no longer fit. Rather than chop the original part, a new bezel was designed for 3D printing.
This image shows the completed bezel. It was designed in three parts to enable it to be printed on a standard hobby printer and also to accommodate the angle of the gauges.
The files can be downloaded below and should be printed with a high infill percentage >50% for durability. If there is a requirement to drill the panel for additional switches or an expectation that the edges will need trimming then the infill will need to be 100%.
One clock bezel file is provided and the expectation is that two will be printed, but one of them as a mirror of the first.
This design was specifically drawn to fit behind the standard R65 fairing, it featured a taller "forehead" along the top to fill in the gap between the clocks and the fairing.
The bezel parts.
Glued with epoxy resin.
Spayed in wrinkle black paint.
Fitted bezel.
For motorcycles without the fairing this second pair of files is provided which doesn't have the tall top section, and attempts to cover the front of the clocks for a neater appearance. These files have not been tested for fit.
This third variation was created for a friend who had an R65 with no indicators nor a fairing. So the top edge was further reduced in height and the warning lights for the indicators were removed. Once again, this design has not been checked for fit.
