So, this Veypor thing's pretty cool, eh?
 

I fitted my Veypor on sunday, and I've been playing with it ever since. What a cool wee thing! Dead, dead easy to fit, I did have my doubts about the RPM pickup since the SV has a famously noisy coil signal that messes with gear indicators, but it went pretty smoothly (it's the black and orange wire on the front coil, folks, and you can take it from the control box in the tail if you don't want to muck about under the tank- just make sure you don't pull the coil plug off while you're fitting it, or you'll regret it... And if you put the speed sensor on the rear brake disc you can conceal the cabling behind the brake line for Stealth Logging. And the RPM multiplier is number 6.

I've not got any useful HP or torque numbers out of it yet, but all the RPM and velocity functions work a charm. The unit itself seems a little cheaply built, a bit mid 90s portable games machine, and for some insane reason the buttons are recessed into the box, not protruding, so they're hard to work in winter gloves... (I'll sort that easily enough, but it's not too clever)...

But it's really cool! It mounts up really easily with a jubilee clip onto the front of the lock mechanism of an original shape bike, so that the mountin is more or less out of sight when not in use, and the unit doesn't obscure the clocks or anything- really nice in fact, I'd sort of assumed it'd end up looing awful...

I'l post up some photos once I've got them, and post progress once I've got the rest of the functions going. What a wonderful toy!

never heard of it. I guess its a data logging sort of gizmo...please tell me more...

hmmmm being without clocks at the moment this option is looking desirable.

apart from the price

HERE is the UK site for the product

I'm just trying to get my head around this: You'll go to great lengths to save £50 on a filter and jet kit (link), whilst spending £190 on a gadget?

:D

Eh, no, I go to some lengths to avoid spending £100 for something that probably can be done just as well for a tenner. It obviously makes no sense to spend £150 for the JHS jet kit if I can get the filter for £55 and the effect of the kit for a tenner. Same reason I bought the exhaust system for £200 instead of buying a Yoshi for £600.

And because of that, I can afford to spend £190 on a gadget!

Anyway, the actual gadget... Still something not right in my setup, since I'm getting a rather unflattering 45bhp peak figure, and I know that even with the knackered choke the bike was doing 69.5... So something's wrong, either the distance reader or possibly the weight. Still got to really play with it, and check some of my figures...

Do let us know. This has been on my wish list for a while, after the can & belly pan! :lol:
