    My voltmeter

    I cut a dash of 1100g, is different from that of my 1000g - but I never cut - without even the hole to choke.

    Painted black plastic, protrudes 3mm to touch the handlebar, so it is only stuck (see the thickness of the plastic!) But not able to get out from the dashboard as it is locked by the two circles for the screws, and can not fall down because it supports the handlebar. It has the blue background, but very dark, not like the picture where you see clear to the flash.

    voltmeter measure 2 x 1 x 2 cm, very small, good for this. His name is master audio psd3

    sorry, google translation!

    That's neat looking! 90000 km- wow!
    But that wire looks like lamp wire- if it is, best to switch to sturdier grade!Great job.

      Yes, very nice looking, but there's nothing wrong with "lamp wire" for this application.

      In fact, I would look at using smaller wire to hide it better.

        It comes with string attached, but hidden behind a headlamp, not seen.

          I meant sturdier insulation- and yeah,24 gauge wire would work and be it's own fuse!

            I like the 3 digit display for measuring and monitoring voltage. On my GSXR, I plan on recessing the LED display because the unlit digits are a bit distracting to me.

              Great mod. I'll have to use that on my bike.

                Totally worth piecing together what you're saying. Looks VERY clean. Nicely done!

                  Just for the convenience of those who want to pursue this, here is a link to the Italian eBay site where this can be purchased. Price is 16.90 Euros, shipping is 7.90 Euros. As of today, that is 23.35 USD for the meter and 10.91 USD for shipping.

                      Is it my failing eyesight, or is that unit water resistant? Couldn't you find it here? A quick search of Fleabay showed only unsealed units, circuit board just hanging out there. Plus, I would need a red one.

                          Didn't look very hard, actually. I just Googled the supplier that Walter mentioned, "master audio psd3" and it came right up.

                          I did that so those that might be more interested could maybe get more details about the unit and do their own search.

                            Very nice, great idea! Now, it would be cool if you could find a suitable clock, to add to the right of the 'Suzuki' logo....just to keep the look fair & balanced.
