Selfmade cockpit for a trailtech vapor

I found a piece of plastic @ work and i had an idea
i made it like this only thing left is the wiring for all
what yall think about it?

i think its great




tomorow i need to make the new chain fit then im able to ride the brp again but now in sm mode with sprockets 14-51 (before 14-50)

I like it but...It's missing the oil slick and smoke screen switches.

Nice job!

thnkz Focker

the switch you see is for the cooling fan i build on some time ago

Rikco is that Trail Tech Vapor that they have on ebay for 98 US dollars? I couldn't see the pics, file was too big? can you send some pics to my e mail?
Thanks,

yes its the trail tech vapor + the single dashbord from e-bay.
dunno exactly what i payd but it was close to 150 dollar for all. (vapor + dash)
the rest i made myself

Nice Job! so you use the Vapor as a odometer? did you have the stator conversion? how many watts 250? I see that you have a 12Volt outlet like the one in the cars, is it? How did you do the wiring, was it hard? I am not that good at complicated wiring diagrams but I want to do mine. How much did you spend doing all the dual conversion kit? Please do you have a list what I need to buy?
Thanks,
Ivan

no other stator then the original 75watt (european model) a 250watt i never seen for the xrr, max stator output is a 200watt as far i know.
my piggy was already factory made for dual sport so i did nothing else then add some small blinkers, led tail&brake light and the vapor and 2 12volt car connectors.(1 you cant see)
wired it from inside the headlight switch and with the headlight off i still got 12volt power on that cable.

here you can see the vapor, this was the first ride when the snow was gone 2 months ago so nothing special (gearing 13/52 )

Rikco did you get the one with the Key or you got the key separate ?

dunno anymore where i got the key switch from, it didn't come with the vapor but on e-bay there are enough on/off key switches that works the same.

Rikco,
My bike when the PO bought it from the Dealer they fit it for the street as a dual purpose so that's mean may be mine is already with a factory stator? how do you know how many watts is coming out of my bike stator? any way to measure it?

Pull the stator cover and see how many of the windings are used.

Rikco,
How did you conect the Vapor to the original cable from the odometer? does it come with the port to conect the original speedometer cable?

Yo Guys,

regarding the keyswitch (ignition switch) following.
I also bought one, nice to have, prevents thieves from a quick getaway. But, this switch is a single contact only, meaning you can switch 1 circuit only, and my plan was the ignition.
If you've got a battery (a DC system) then you've got a problem, all will still work until the battery is empty, you don't want this. So I found a dual-circuit keyswitch, which kills the ignition as well as the DC-circuit, meaning the bike is really 'off' when the key is out - which I presume you want! So no fiddly system with a relay required or why, just a single key which does all.
I'll look for the link once at home, but Google should be your friend.

Rikco,

not this is digital, it comes with all you need.

Wheel Sensor

Magnet

Temperature Sensor: 16mm Radiator Hose Insert
