Looks nice. For future reference you don't need thread sealant on AN fittings. They seal at the flare not using the threads.

I've sat on the bike with the gauge and my legs don't touch it but it does come fairly close. If you're shorter than me 5 foot 9 I'd say your leg would touch which is a pain cause the gauge gets pretty warm.
