WTB: aftermarket speedo/tach setup

BobTheBiker · 07-29-2008, 04:54 PM

Since getting a headlight, I've been forced to delete my stock gauge set. now I'd like to find an aftermarket set of gauges, maybe digital, but I really dont know what I'm looking for besides not extremely expensive.

Dont want an Acewell set, dont like them in the least.

tach, speedo, oil, neutral & other extra lights?

or just a tach?

i actually just went with a shift light, deleted the rest. for the street, the flow of traffic and shifting by ear/feel works, and when u get on it, the bright redlight says shift it b4 u blow it up. works for me...

I have to have at a minimum. a speedo, oil and neutral lights, and a temp indicator. tach would be good, but I can live without it.

if you kept your old harness, or just know what wires to use, then you can just get indicator lights from the local auto parts store in whatever color u want. try jcwhitney or denniskirk for a cheap aftermarket speedo

I would, but want to go digital, rather than stay analog. digitalization is my aim simply to update the bike, rather than keep it looking ancient.
