I could not find them on there. All they had where the ones pictured on that link. Dennis Kirk has them though. http://www.denniskirk.com/1/1/97872-emgo-universal -mirror-2078207.html | ||

Nice dash mounting Imadreadhead, that looks clean. What bars are those? | ||
| Imadreadhead |
Custom Berkshire Widget bars | ||

I like that Vapor dash. Too bad you have to run a sensor line for it, though. It does fit very nicely in the crook of the bars. | ||
| Imadreadhead |
You can see where i ran the sensor line in the first pic.. i now have,,Engine temp..TACH,Time..Speed..shift light..etc all for $120 And it took 30mins to install | ||
| Ezblast |
A couple more pics and some install notes would be cool, so if others want to do this they have a reference. EZ | ||
| Imadreadhead |
it will come sir | ||
| Ezblast |
Thank you - I appreciate that - I may give that puppy a shot myself on my project. EZ | ||

I would totally use one if it didn't need that sensor line. Too bad it can't tie in to the connection for the stock speed sensor. I'll bet there's a way you could convert whatever the pulses are from the stock speed sensor to work with this, but it would require a bit of electronics know-how, probably using a PIC or maybe even something as simple as a decade counter. | ||

Whats so bad about the sensor line? It's no big deal. | ||
| Ezblast |
I'd of put it on the other side to balance the break line, still - thats an easy clean up detail type of thing - it doesn't bother me - how secure is the final mounting for the sensor? If its glue, I'd expoxy and paint black. EZ | ||

Here is one link I found for the Vapor gauge. I'm gonna save up for one. I really like the look and what it does. http://trailtech.net/vapor.html I see that they have specific versions with connections for specific bikes. They appear to be made for dirt bikes and ATVs. Can you give us a link to where you bought yours? | ||

"Whats so bad about the sensor line? It's no big deal." To each his own. I just don't like the look of a wire zip tied to the fork, that's all. If you're happy with it, that's all that matters  | ||

i got part # 75-704 that includes the sensor for the spark plug to show engine temp. | ||
| Ezblast |
Nice! | ||
| Johnnymac |
"i got part # 75-704 that includes the sensor for the spark plug to show engine temp." I found the Vapor gauge for as low as $90 and the dash for it (which adds things like turn signal indicator lights and such) as an additional $40. You had said you got "everything" for $120 and, since your picture has the gauge and dash panel, I would assume your $120 includes both pieces. Please share with us just where you got yours from.  | ||
| Imadreadhead |
no..you are correct..i ordered the indicators seperatley for around $35..i ordered the Vapor gauge from the Trailtech site for $120 so i could have the warranty.. The indicator dash i got off ebay | ||

Phoebe--I'm going the dsPIC route. I have the designs in work now. I'm using a 128x64 LCD graphics display for the dash. It'll tie into my ignition module and my blinker module. I'll have a networked Blast! | ||

Gosh! Don't you guys have aqny pictures to look at? Gosh! | ||
| Ezblast |
  This in grey black would be nice - lol EZ | ||
| Johnnymac |
Yeah it would! Some interesting pieces on that bike but I think using the billet anal beads for hand grips would be more than a little uncomfortable after about 5 minutes into a ride. LOL | ||

I want an XB thumper, thats all I need. | ||

| Krjoseph |
Wow. Looks great. | ||

Great job Sam. You've gone from newbie to pro, working on your Blast! PS Your shock is mounted upside down. Dont ask me how I know LOL! | ||
| 10404697 |
THANKS!!! but is the shock a big deal or should it be ok? | ||
| Gearheaderiko |
Should be fine (I didnt notice any problems such as clearance issues), but its very easy to change too! | ||
| 10404697 |
hey how does the belt look in the picture like is it in the right spot on the tire?or should it go just and eighth of an inch inward...? thanks |
