maknak Posted February 28, 2014 Share #1 Posted February 28, 2014 Hello everyone, It has been a while since I have been on as I got into a wreak. A damn car cut right in front of me at a green light and I laid her down to avoid a head on collision. I torn my AC joint completely and I had to have surgery. I turns out I also had a SLAP tear and a torn rotator cuff but the doc said they were probably old injuries. But long story short I am on the mend and trying to put shela back together, I am going to try to make her naked (instead of buying a lot of plastics ) by removing the broken cruise control components and the large stay at the front. My question....Is there an aftermarket speedo/tach that i could hook up with limited modification? I have already put on an aftermarket headlight and it looks good but I want to replace the gauges, mount some handle bar mirrors, and mount some blinkers in the front. Thanks in advance!

syscrusher Posted March 1, 2014 Share #2 Posted March 1, 2014 A Trail Tech Vapor can replace your Tach and Speedo nicely. It adds a temp gauge as well. http://www.trailtech.net/digital-gauges/vapor About $100 street price. The one for DR650 would be compatible with first gen. A $50 dashboard kit adds 4 idiot lights and better mounting for the Vapor. http://www.trailtech.net/indicator-light-dashboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
