Trailtech Vapor/Endurance

[specialized7]

Alright well iv been tossin up the idea to get one of these little digital clusters, but im not sure which one to get the endurance only shows your speed/time etc where as the vapor shows your rpms/speed/engine temp/and a few other things.
but the price difference between the 2 is about 60-70 bux canadian for me.
im just looking for some opinions on which one to get.
or if anyone has one what can you tell me about it(i know paulie b has one i wouldnt mind some insight on it)
thanks
vapor

From what I've been told if you get the Endurance, you will be dissapointed(sp?). Just spend the extra $$$ and get the vapor.

i have the endurance and i think its great, speedometer works great, ride time, top speed, average speed, and so on, the vapor would be nice to see the rpms, but i just couldnt wait

Yah, heard they aren't very durable and sort of a waste. Don't let that stop you though, could have been some idiot writing a bogus review.

 

[Blasterdude27]

I've head nothing but good things about the vapor, except that the rpm's lag a little at idle, and its not fully waterproof.

oh really, well yea im leaning more towards the vapor because the engine temp and all that. i wanna hear from somebody who has the vapor

I have the endurance. It works alright. Speed lags a bit. If I had the choice I wouldn't have bought it at all, spend the money where it matters, but too bad.

Sorry bro I'll just copy /paste it.

[FONT=verdana, arial, helvetica]Hey.

Overall the vapor is awesome. The speedometer is pretty accurate, and the tachometer is decent. When you're standing still and reving it up fast, it gets pretty jumpy. But under acceleration the rpm is accurate and steady.
It also has a programmable shift light, and a red line light to flash if you hit it.

The outside temp, never really seems all to accurate but enough to give you an idea.

It has the time on it, how many miles you traveled, and the highest rpm/speed you ever got. So if you hit 65, it would save 65.

I've had the thing caked in mud and sprayed water directly on it and it doesn't affect it. pretty cool.

The kit comes with all the wires and a mounting bracket. It comes with two plastic mounts, a 7/8 one and a 1-1/8 one.

Overall it was definitely worth the $108 shipped that I payed.

For the battery, you just send the wires under the side panels to get to the battery and just hook it to the battery.

The tach wire I sent under the hood, and all you have to do is wrap it around the coil wire a couple of times.

The speedo is a little more work. You have to drill a hole (I forget exactly where, its in the instructions) to mount the sensor. Then a magnetic bolt replaces one of the rotor bolts, so the sensor can pick up the magnet. It shows you how to do it in the instructions."

Yes you can use the power from the lighting coil and I belive you can use batteries for back-up

 

[blasterman87]

ok, on the vapor site it says for the blaster you can only hook up the spedo/tach/hr meeter/ you cant hook up the temp guage because its not liquid cooled(the temp tensor hooks into the radiator)

yea i just read that, that kind of sucks.
i might wait on this and get my carb first
