A few less expensive mods I have done. The oil temp guage is worth its weight in gold to me. The speedo cable guide is also a must. My stock guide split in about a week on my first TBA that I got.

Very nice mods! What is the range of temp during the operation of the motor? Is it measuring oil temp or case temp?

KLC,

I am thinking it is about 165oF - 170oF. It looks like the red zone is at 250oF. I would think one look at this guage would tell if you were low on oil, frying a clutch, etc..

Brit26, speaking of inexpensive mods, I dropped your led's in the mail this past weekend. You should have them by mid-week, I would think

Nice. Where did you get the cable guide from? I noticed mine has split y'day, with the cable flapping about all over the place. Quality control, Triumph??!!!?!!?? I don't know how old the component is, but it's hardly stressed..
