Finkin' I might buy meself a present ....

I just found this ... it would be a nice touch for my slowly evolving /7.
4 inch diameter and only 1 inch thick. GPS accuracy, no need for a pick-up. The inset tacho is icing on the cake.

Personally, I like bigger numbers, so I'd prefer one that used the whole 270 degree sweep for the 120 mph, but it's certainly slick looking.

Very cool site. It's great the way you can customize your instrument face. I'm fond of the "Swiss" font. They had one hell of a great web designer. The ability to see exactly what your customized instrument is going to look like must really add a lot of sales.

Seeing is buying.

Very nice instrument, Mal - I want one.
Consider the 3 and 3/8 inch version - it'll fit into a slash five headlight bucket (85mm hole) if you happen to find one.
The Legacy series doesn't appear to do metrics, but this one does -

Really? I figured the /5 instruments were bigger than that. 85mm is the stock size for my /7 speedo and tach.

Hmm, you've got me doubting now. My chinese copy has an 85mm hole. Timo will know.

Will it keep working when you go through a long tunnel or a underground carpark?

Good question, and I was about to say that I like the Vapor better for that reason alone, not to mention it's other features, like ambient temp. and clock.
But it's styling doesn't really go with a Type 247.

Now a twin-shock R65? That's a whole nuther ball game! I think the Vapor fits right in there, styling-wise, not to mention only costing a little over $100.


Rare-earth magnet on the brake rotor kind of thing.
