Do you have the rev counter drive on the clutch side of the engine?

Hi, there looks to be an unscewable plug on top of the casing.

Sounds promising......so long as its on the right side engine casing cos im sure theres another screw in plug on the other side too.


Anyway from the sounds of it you wont have the actual drive (i could be wrong). You'll need to source the rev counter drive cog from Yamaha or a broken engine. Next youll have to take the engine casing off and may be even the clutch basket. Its a big job for something you'll rarely use

 You've got this website. Although you're going to want the dashboard as well

http://www.moorespeedracing.co.uk/trail-tech-motorcycle-digital-speedos/trail-tech-vapor-digital-speedo-universal.html

 

So this one might be the one to go for:

Thanks mate, looked at an old thread regarding the vapors so gonna buy directly off vapor themselves, saves a couple quid that way if i buy the dashboard as well, but once again cheers for posting those links :)

Probably order one start of next month or the end of it, Cant wait :)

Yeah Mate I fancy one myself but a little bit pricey. Also with regards to the rev counter it is a little laggy. But have a look on you tube. You can programme a shift light on it as well which is nifty. But let us know how yoh got on.
