2001 klr650 backfires after 500 mile maintenance

[Andre Fiedler]

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good and accurate aftermarket voltage meter to mount on the KLR? I'd like to make sure that I am not running my battery down when I have all my electrics and higher wattage bulbs going. Thanks.

I don't know if you have a GPS, but most GARMIN GPS's have a voltmeter reading when connected to external power. You have to know the secrect password to display it, but it works great. Pat Austin TX

What is the password for a Garmin 12 map. I think that would be handy to have displayed!!!

It looks great on paper (or rather on the screen), but by the experience of one of my friends who bought one to check on his failing R/R and by traffic on the VFR list, this does not meet the accurate criteria specified in the original post. IIRC, there was both an accuracy and precision problem. Nice gadget, but doesn't seem to work as advertised. FWIW, I tried following the link, and it's not there any more. Maybe they decided to stop selling them. YVoltmeterMV, Gustavo

Anybody either 1)Have the one from Aerostitch or 2) tried modifying a cig lighter cheapo version? andre, we had an extraordinary demand for this product and unfortunately sold out. our supplier no longer carries them and we are currently looking for a new source. sincerely, alana customer service, evoluzione cyclesports http://www.evoluzione.net
