@Mightyman I have thought about the same problem but how about 3d printing a new speedo surround then fibre glassing bondo, filler paint to finish ?
@tdr125greg That is a very nice idea actually! Would be even better if you could save the fussing with fibre glass and just get a snug fit with something 3D printed.

@finnerz89 looks tidy mate, how responsive is the Rev meter and do you have the radiator temp sensor or the sensor that goes on the spark plug?
-
Another purchase sees the trail tech vapor and indicator dash added to PROJECT TDR.
I purchased the kit on eBay from Moore speed racing for £150 all in which I thought was a good deal.
Any of you guys run the vapor on a tdr/Dt before?
-
@tdr125greg vapor on my dt and I love it. Makes me feel like I got a spaceship at night with the shift lights flashing in my goggles. Haven't ridden the bike for years but back when I was a kid
-
@Calum I'm really looking forward to seeing those shift lights in action
@tdr125greg The one I fitted to my MT-03 was SUPER inaccurate with the rev counter... I fitted it to the spark plug wire as the instructions mentioned but at 60mph+ speed the revometer would be all over the place, claiming I needed to shift all the time
-
@finnerz89 Never had any problems with the counter myself.
On my new build it csn be wired directly to the cdi

@finnerz89 Yeah I believe it's the green/yellow wire that will pulse when the ignition fires. So no need to wrap the HT lead you can just wire it directly to the CDI.
I would double check the wiring diagram first mind you.

@Calum I've been in talks with borut at zeeltronic, and I have decided I will definitely order the cdi and the programmer within the next 2 months. I've seen many varied experiences using the Rev counter but I'm assuming that's down to a bad install as I've also seen the Rev counter work great..

Put some respek on it! 😂 -

@tdr125greg Yeah don't take my experience as fact, I expected that it wasn't the norm.

@Mightyman Way back when, When I took my bike license before the law changed, I did it on my DT.
There is a bit where you must do national speed limit. Guess what? Vapor packed up. Looked down and I was doing 110 MPH I was like WTF! Bike only does 70 lol.
I have had glitches sure, but the norm is that it is spot on.
-
@tdr125greg Yeah don't take my experience as fact, I expected that it wasn't the norm.
@Mightyman haha sorry man didn't mean to make it sound like I was roasting you lol..
These things happen don't they and I'm sure the way you done it is a method stated in the trail tech manual.
I guess Calum's way just picks the pulse up in a more accurate Manor -
No worries @tdr125greg
Would have preffered connecting it up directly but when I specified the bike was an MT-03 they just sent me the kit that was to be fitted around the spark plug wire and told me to do it that way. @Calum that's mad, would have put me right off... I managed to just about do my full test on a YBR 125. It was a bit of a struggle to get it up to speed round the corners in the mod 1 though. -
It's the same cable whether you wrap it around the HT lead or wire it up to your coil. I went with coil as it seemed more reliable and accurate. Had the bike stripped at the time so it was no hassle to do.

@finnerz89 Oh right, fair enough. Mine didn't have bare wire exposed on the end so I didn't realise.

Nice one lads, so the moral of the story is wire it in and bobs your uncle
