metalmikky Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hi all, so im picking my XT125 up next week but it has no speedometer as it got knicked and im wondering if anyone can recommend a decent stockist to get one from? Ive had a quick look around the internet but they seem hard to find and the one I did find was expensive. Ive also noticed that a lot of people have had problems with them so im wondering if I could simply wire a different kind on to it, like a non digital one for example. Sorry if it's a newbie question but yes Im new here. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted June 24, 2015 Moderator Share Posted June 24, 2015 If it was me, I would fit a Trail Tech one LINKY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalmikky Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Thanks for that, they seem decent but im not sure how easy it'll be to fit. Although at £100 cheaper than the original I'll find a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j0hn Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Hey metalmikky, I've actually got the Endurance II on my WR and installation was pretty simple. I would say the only bit of real DIY was having to drill a bit into the calliper to hold the magnet sensor in the correct place. I've been running it for over a year now (rain/shine) and no problems with it yet. Just make sure you get the correct fitment for your XT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevtheRev Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I used a digital bicycle speedo from Halfords (10 bucks ) for years on my CB500 . It worked perfectly but was a bit dodgy at night as it had no backlight , lol . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalmikky Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks for the advice guys but i think I'm going to go with a cheap universal one, over spent already on my new baby. Might go with your alternative kevtherev as a temporary measure. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grouch Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I used the trail tech on my old XT and it was fine. Just don't buy a Yamaha one because they are notorious for breaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grouch Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Yeah it's a massive fault with the original and replacent Yamaha XT 125 X/R speedo's. I bought the trail tech vapor and it was spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
