my custom dash.. yeh or nah tell me whet you think.

it has fuel level, oil pressure and water temp gauges to go in the centre dark blue bit, as well as a digital dash for speed and tach. which is a trail tech vapor

and yes it was dark and rainy!!

It's a little plain but once all the goodies go in it could look right.

gettin there.
are you gunna utilise the side spare with air vents or a glove box or something?
what are you going to finish it in or are you going to paint it?

I say Yay , it looks nice and neat and with a digital dash and a few guages it shouldn't look overdone .

_________________

nah no glove box i wanna keep it simple. but the rest of the interior will be painted. that's basicly a pre fit before mounting it properly to make sure it looks nice.

cheerz mat.

hi leema, how did you go with this? I just stumbled upon the trailtech vapour via a singapore bike forum... looks the goods, and for $200 seems to be good value!

are the tacho's on these switchable for 4cyl engines? can you set the rolling circumference small enough for mini wheels? is it accurate? is the backlighting decent?

sorry about all the q's

here's a link to one on ebay if anyone is interested.

On that listing it's for a quad bike, so after a quicl ook at one of the quad bikes mentioned i'm thinking the wheels are going to be around the same size ish o/d as a mini.

yep I've done some more research, and you can adjust the wheel sizes on the computer. The tacho pickup is inductive loop around #1 spark plug lead, but you can also hook it up directly to the coil with a resistor.

It also has water temp alarms, and I think red-line alarms (not too sure on that one though)..

will be picking one up when the stimulus package comes through!
