Looks good

Only things missing are other instrumentation functions like temperature, oil pressure etc etc.

That looks incredible - the amount of data on that thing is awesome. How much - does anyone know?

Looks like upwards to £300 then

As Geoff says, £240 inc vat. Online store is here LINK.

Looks like a great piece of kit, even includes G-force readings. Would be interested to know what they mean by 'full data logging', if they mean it stores all the stuff it can measure then it sounds like a bargain!

Hellfire, are you looking at the harnesses on the products page that cost £36.75? If so, these appear to be extra harnesses so you can use the unit on more than one car/bike. The standard unit comes with one harness as far as I can tell. That means a fully functional digital display and data logger for £240 I want one now!!!

On the front page of the site it says this:

quote:
Unlike many other acquisition systems, Veypor comes complete with all of the required sensors and mounting hardware needed to install it on any motorcycle - or any vehicle with wheels.



So yes it does come complete with everything you need for installation for £240...

apart from the compulsory () billet case which is another £65

for a track car i think it represents good value fo rmoney, but for a road car where all it is really useful for is a tacho/speedo (does it do odo?) then its not as cheap as it seems if you factor in other gauges a vdo or etb set would be cheaper..

It also doesn't do lateral G's, only longitudinal G's. That's one of the features I was after I know it's a bit gimmicky for road use but it still looks fun

IF YOU HAVE A B.E.C MACHINE (LIKE ME) THEN ALL YOU NEED IS A COUPLE MORE GAUGES £100 APPROX

THEN YOU WOULD HAVE A FULL SET FOR AROUND £350 IN VAT..!!

CANT SEE ANYTHING ELSE COMING CLOSE

HOW COOL WOULD THAT HEADS UP BE ..

Do you have any pics of the install?
Have you (are you) fitted any other gauges with it? Doesit have the warning lights included or do you need bright 6?

actually the bike and car one are the same, its a vr1 and vr2 ( bike and car just come with long/short looms and different fixing) the vr2 has much greater logging data , and other features..i have bought the vr2 ( not fixed in yet). its a smart piece of kit looks much bigger in real life than in the photos, the blue display is very clear. they regualary update the sofware and the latest one shows analogue revs & speedo and gear..i bought the 3 x racetech guages as well (which you can adapt to have blue lighting) and it cost around £360 inc del

there are some pictures by guiness on the bec section page 8, marked digital guages,or try this link(1st time hope it works)

It's dead easy. There are two buttons, menu and enter. You scroll through the options until you come to Configure, press enter, scroll through options until you come to wheel circumference, press enter. Input the wheel circumference (or for added accuracy the effective rolling distance for ten rotations), press enter. That's it.

Oh the tricky bit is mounting the speedo sensor and gluing the magnet to the wheel thats least likely to be in the air or spinning.
