WHO has installed a REV counter on their X&R '04-'09?
 

there is a research over the last couple of weeks on the Hellenic forum, concerning installation of a digital or analog REV counter on our XT's.
We have come up with several suggestions but all ends up on "how to install & how can we get a pulse on our X's and R's"
Referring to anyone that has -succesfully- installed or knows how to install any REV counter (analog or digital) except the PC display option that Kev kindly showed us --as far as not everyone can afford one--.

any help from those who did it, is much appreciated :660:

This may help.

Yea you can get the rev's up on the bike but it will only stay there until you start riding so is not a perminant thing.

Kev did it back in 06 & listed all the different types? I spoke about the difference between the 06 & 07 models when they changed from a twin spark motor to a single spark & how it effected the rev counter in the ASK KEV section.

Info in the mod section under.

Very nice.

Please can you post the information where you can buy one & how much did you pay $.

Looks tidy enough there. but can we have some more details, what when where and how much?

The cost is about 40 Euro. The producer is GPT, an Italian producer. I attach link for more informations. This one is the simplest kind of REV produced by GPT. In any case, for my expectation it's very good. It doesn't need to modify the bike. Have an internal battery that is in function from more then two years. The sensor is a cable that work per induction and need only to be near the spark plug cable (see the cable fixed with red strip to spark plug cable, in the attached pictures).
It's settable for avery kind of engine. Of course it depends on what you are looking for. But, I repeat, in my opinion is very usefull (set up and so on). I would to explain better, but this one is the limit of my English. In any case, if you need further informations, don't hesitate to ask me. I will try to answer. Sorry and best regards. have you a nice day. Gianni.

Hello Gianni, could you please tell us from where did you bought it for 40 euro?
Because from a fast search, the minimum price that I have found it, is 84 euros.
Unfortunately the official GPT site, doesn't have a price.
