Title: Intruder speedo on a savage? Post by Drifter on 08/02/11 at 08:47:54 Any one know if the speedo drive on a savage/s40 is the same as an  800 intruder?  Would be nice to have the speedo in eye sight and to have a tripmeter!  Another benefit getting a bigger tank like some are using on cafe bikes.

Yes, a tripmeter would be nice. The tanks on the RYCA bikes are smaller than stock. http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh253/Gyrobob_theOriginal/Motorcycle/RYCA%20CS-1%20LS650%20S40%20Savage/RYCABodyworkirfan20.jpg

Post by MrBrownTX on 08/03/11 at 11:47:41 The speedo being so far down from sight seems real dangerous to me.  I have to take my eyes completely off the road to look at it.  I did find a $16 mount for my GPS on tiger direct .com so I am going to order that and mount it on my handle bars.  It will give me mph, direction, time and that nifty map. I also have the parts to hook up a 12 volt cig lighter/plug. Your idea might be alot easier though.
