Send it back and just get a Mr. Gasket temp gauge cap. Then you dont have to cut a hose or dump the coolant to put it in.

I would mount it where the factory keyswitch is somehow

that would be easy but that shit looks gay u need the cascade bar clamp and renthals.

You dont have to cut a hole in the plastics to see the Mr. Gasket temp gauge cap. You can see it from the side.

The Mr. Gasket cap works really well. I ran mine all last summer and it was nice knowing where my water temp was. I recommend getting one and their only like 25 bucks.

 

I'm excited to see how it does this summer with my new aluminum radiator

How did u mount ur gauge there?

Do u have a sensor that reads the temp to the gauge?

I feel sorry for all you guys... Just run methanol and you will never think about engine temps again. haha! We ride in 100+ temps all over the dunes all day and never see temps above 150.

 

If I were going to run a temp gauge I would drill/tap the head and put the probe in the head and mount the gauge up on the bars somewhere easy to see while riding.
