jayzx10r Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) I've been thinking of an easy accurate way to monitor my 'shees temp...and I came across this on (fe)eBay. Item #170095856293 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Temperature...1QQcmdZViewItem Now I know that you can't see it when you ride, but I thought it wouldn't be too hard to give it a look when it felt like it was getting a bit warm... I believe this style of thermo to be pretty darn accurate. Besides, you have 2 so you can compare readings for each cylinder separately. It looks EZ, and I like EZ... I don't have an access area to mount a standard round gauge cleanly to my bar clamp. What do you think?? Jay From SanD. Edited March 28, 2007 by jayzx750 Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 you can always make a hole in your grill plastics and mount it there... Quote

If you dont have room to mound a round on,. stick it through the front plastic. Quote

ClimbAnyHill Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Rocky Mountain sells those as well. It's not expensive at all so give it a shot. Let us know how they work for you! Quote
SoCalinIt Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I had one on my YZ250... it worked good... I think... I never had anything to compare it to. :shrug: Quote
Satsol67 Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Kind of hard to see when your riding. Isnt the whole point to be able to see if its running hot while running? Its not hard to mount one to your plastics. Quote
Animalman294 Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I'm still tryin' to find a unit that I can mount and read it while I am riding............ Quote

We use them at work all the time. You just need to make sure whatever surface you are putting them on has been cleaned with acetone first, otherwise they will fall off. I am not sure that I would expect to read the stickers while you are riding. :thumbsup: Quote

jbooker82 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Here is mine it is just a mechanical automotive temp gauges. You know those metal mounting hoops that they come with? Just straighten it out so it is flat. Notch out the corners so you can sandwitch it inbetween the upper and lower bar clamp. Quote
