need recommendations for combo tach/speedo gauge
« on: April 07, 2015, 11:45:12 PM »
Can anyone recommend a good analog style electric/gps tach/speedometer as a single faced unit?

Motogadget have a good one with plenty of other features you will want once you know they are available.

Not analog, but I just put a trail tech voyager on the handlebars of my Cal2. Works pretty nice. You have to be able to figure out some wiring and follow pretty specific instruction while also being creative. They are way less expensive than some of their counter parts but just as reliable. If you want gps you would probably want the voyager though.

I am using a trail tech VAPOR on one of my bikes.  Setting up the tach wire can bring on tinnitus, but it works reliably once mastered.  The tach pickup is supposed to wrap around a spark plug wire -- I never liked that arrangement.  The speedo runs off a sensor you mount on the front wheel.  Mine is a magnet I popped into a brake disk button.  It can be as accurate as you want it to be.

I give it a 7/10

I don't see pulse input type but I'd be surprised if they can't do those in dual also.

double.d I've been thinking about the motogadget model, as I plan on picking up the M unit and M button, I wished they had the double analog features of the speedhut gauges, I'm still up in the air
