Oops wrong button *Motorrad*



Id love to have the 4 display one.. But I know I wouldnt use it as much because of its size.... 


Can some of you snap a pic of your EGT mount location?

Also Doug told me how far from the piston face to mount the EGT probe... But since I was running a asbestos removal jobsite, (air monitering, etc etc) I of course forgot what number he told me.  :roll:

Wow that probe is Huge...   (looks exactly like one I have sitting here on my shelf that is a ULTRA FAST react one). I use on my BBQ smoker, (hooked to a PID computerised temp controller)


Now I just need to get up the guts to drill and weld on a Zip-ty pipe that I got the last one of...  :cry:

I specifically chose the Digatron product because their response time is fast enough for tuning purposes. A lot of the 2s stuff available is really designed for use as a 'dummy' light. As in, "Hey guy, the egt on your ultralight engine just started climbing....better look for a field!"

That is the conclusion I came to from looking at all of them also..

I downloaded their software last night, Looks like it will be accurate enough to show me how bad of a rider I am (show all my missed shifts, etc)

here you go with the deto counter. the black means it's detonation. You can hook this up to your data logger input.

180-90's idleing around..
Single digit 200s for quick pops through midrange..

Havnt touched anything above 1/2 yet. (break in ya know)


Perhapse I am just being perrinoid.. My BIG 640CC KTM single normaly runs in the 170's (no matter what)..  fans kick on at 185..  and never.. I MEAN NEVER goes above 190...
(And I am talking about idling through a sand wash, (DEEP). for 2 hours, in first gear, in 109F weather..  I thought I was going to die...)
