I've got Vapor on my NSR 350...(which is half an MC21)



I made a new mount from scratch welded to to standard 21 front frame, along with an RGV idiot light panel. The speedo is perfect and easy to read, though the tacho is slightly less visible though the rpm warning lights which are easier to spot.

Fitting can be fiddly with all the small wires to connect to certain points in the loom, and chances are the speedo wire will need shortening (which is hard with such tiny wires)... I had my loom apart at the time, so it wasn't too much hassle, but otherwise, if you're a competant solderer, then you'll find it logical and easy enough.

Overall I'd recomend it, though it was the best option in my circumstances (Yamaha engine won't work with NSR tacho, no speedo drive etc), but if I owned a 'normal' NSR I think I'd prefer to keep the stock clocks.

Does the vapor have a light for night riding?

Do a Google search on the Mychron 3 unit with the weak dollar you can buy one from the US for not much more than a Vapor as long as you avoid the duty Wink

Yes, in fact it's clearer at night than in daylight....

Hi...

I've been using AIM MyChron3 Plus for 4 years now in my Racing KTM SMR450 in the Greek Chapionship and i can say that this little thing really helped me to improve my self... It has more data - information that you really are going to use... I recomended it 100%...

If you find one in good price, take it...

Cheers
Michael

Just bought a Mychron3 for my RGV off good old e-bat for £80 odd, there are bargains to be had if you keep an eye open.

The Vaypor does have speedo on it. Mines just not set up at the moment.

I'd take a pic of the setup but I allready get enough stick about my bike as it is. Laughing

As Mick says..yes it has a speedo pick up. I mounted it from a little bracket on the brake caliper mounting bolt and glued the magnet to the disc carrier....works fine...
