The company is based in Canada but does have an outlet in the US. I am an authorized dealer for them and am listed on their website. When ordering from them the parts may come from the US office or from Canada ... just depends on parts availablility at the time.
If anyone wants a Veypor ( $279.99 )I will offer a 10% discount for the members of this website. The markup on these is not much, basically the 10% is pretty much half of the profit margin. Shipping is not crazy since the stuff is light weight. The company does not offer quantity discounts so we cannot work it that way.
Installation is very easy. Learning to use all of the features takes a bit longer since there are so many of them, but this is a really cool computer device. I have used it for 2 hears now and find it to work extremely well. Their website has a lot of info and explains more of the detail very well.

I think kenGlong had the best idea for you. I had no idea that they made aftermarket fule gauges for dirtbikes, so it would be a cool idea and would set your bike apart.

I vaguely remember seeing a gas gauge... basically it was a piece of clear fuel line that ran down the side of the tank... was that on savage bobber dave's bike? or was that in THE HORSE, Backstreet choppers?
I remember that too -- it was on my first bike, a two-stroke Suzuki 250 from about 1964! Remember the X-6 -- tubular frame, oil injection and a six-speed tranny? This was it's predecessor -- dump the oil in the gas tank and pray you don't foul another spark plug. Four speed transmission and a white pressed steel frame. It bore a striking resemblance to a refrigerator, but it was two wheels and a motor, so I was one happy camper! And them were the days you could go hill-climbing and cow-trailing just about anywhere, which I did. Just had to be careful with the low pipes.
Ah, memories!
As for the plastic tube "gas gauge" -- I suspect it doesn't pass today's safety standards, probably because it isn't very safe. If the tube slips, cracks or leaks you're dumping out gas right above the motor!
