Potential Replacement for failed instruments on Classics

[DEcosse]

Just came across these while responding to a technical request on one of the other Triumph forums

Daytona Velona Gauges - "VELONA" SPEEDOMETERS/TACHOMETERS < GAUGES < MULTI-FIT PRODUCTS < Products | Daytona Corp

They come in several options of colours and configs; you can have single instrument with integrated speed & tachor a pair depending on your budget/preference.

Look like a really nice option as a replacement for the dreaded failure of the OEM instruments on the std/classic bikes.

UK guys can look here Daytona Products & Gauges

Koso and Smiths have some nice 80mm gauges too. - edit to add - AND WATERPROOF.

Speedhut in the US do some stunning gauges - to order - but not waterproof.

I think those look terrific

The pricing is surprisingly friendly too!

Especially the smaller 60mm ones. I keep promising myself something less traditional though.

Smart cookie would put modern Smiths gauges on a Triumph....would get people looking and looking wondering what vintage bike you have.

Jon at Digital Speedos has them - I fitted a "non-M/C" smiths to my Guzzi and it works well except the face glass cracked and fell out.

In the past folk have fitted Dakota Digital
Minimalists might like a Motoscope-Mini.
Motogadget also do a special breakout box for Triumphs for their Motoscope-Pro - Whether this can be used on a later R3 I do not know.
