I need a 1 1/2 inch electrical not mechanical temperature gauge and voltmeter. I can't find anything except a set that has colors in the face to tell you if you are ok or not. Don't want those. Just a black gauge would work. anyone know of any?

I look and look but don't find. I will start calling the manufacturers. Plenty of 2" but I want to add them to my radiator pod on one side and 2" is too much. Air horn is in the other.

 Try Summit racing . I searched for "1 1/2 temperature gauge " and got 308 results.

You might look at digital gauges. They would be rectangular, not round.

Motosens has good stuff, but it is in centigrade.

I have been using these autogage electric gauges for about five years now. They work great and wire in really easily. The best part is you just pull two screws off the horizontal chrome carb cover and the brackets lineup almost perfectly, you just have to ream it out just a hair.

I wish I knew how to post a picture here, but I don't. Suffice it to say I have gotten a lot of compliments on how these gauges look mounted on the side of the carbs like that. If you would like a picture either explain to me how to post one or send me an email address and I can send some to you both how they're mounted and how I wired them in.

Take care,
Ride safe,
Doug
