Title: WHICH TRAIL TECH VAPOR DO I BUY!?
Post by: JustinLeeWilson32 on May 14, 2013, 06:07:31 PM
I want to get a trail tech vapor. I looked at the site and there are different ones for different models. Which one will fit my 92 gs? I see the generic one for conventional forks but it says "for water cooled" which we all know the gs isn't. Does that just mean I can't get an internal temp reading? Or will it not work at all?

I like my Koso better. But with all these digital ones, you just don't use the features that are not available. So the temp meter probably won't work properly.

if its electrical in nature you MAY be able to use i think its called a thermocouple. aka a sticky pad witha  wire. used to attach to pc components to measure temp. have my eye on a vapor for 50 which i can connect this way. really no way for other minor gadgettry, but the tach, speedo and temp. yes since ive gotten my vapor installed on the pig, the sensor is a copper ring with wires leating to teh computer.
