Why?

FYI, orange backlight works great at night and doesn't blind you like white or blue back lights.

Please sell the bike and get one of these instead.

I think I would prefer a soft white light over the orange. I do have a spare R1200S instrument cluster, but I haven't opened it up yet.

Just get a clear shield. You really should be using a clear shield at night. If you have trouble seeing your instruments, certainly you will have trouble seeing other traffic.
