Trigger Wheel

Hi All


I'm looking for a 62mm 12 tooth trigger wheel to fit inside my R1. I've been using an external trigger wheel but I want a more elegant solution!

I've tried the ususal routes - eBay and http://trigger-wheels.com/store/index1.html but nothing doing.

I know they are available but can't find any!

I've found a 60/2 wheel in about the right size (in the US) but I'm not sure if this will work with my Emerald ECU (awaiting a response from Emerald).

Any thoughts

Regards

Wyn

Wynn,

would think Emerald will take a 60/2 input.

if not could you cut some of the teath off a 60/2 to make a 12 ? ( tyed doing the maths but gave up

Thanks Agriv8

Emerald will run a 60/2 wheel but that's a lot of small teeth on a very small wheel at 12,000 rpm! I was concerned that the sensor may not be able to deal with it.

Trigger Wheels . com have been blindingly fast with their responses and are checking that their small 36/1 wheel is up to the job. FIngers are crossed.

I don't want this to happen again!

Easy way is just to get a 60 or 36 tooth wheel and go at the spare teeth with the angry grinder ; )

Leave every fifth tooth in and take the rest out, or every third tooth in a 36/1 should leave you 12 shouldn't it?
