Good show, thanks. We always called it heat sink compound in the electronics field

Thanks for watching, yes, my radiator cap is same size as OEM. I recently saw that Rockymountainatv had them back in stock again with their Tusk brand. If you can get one, it is worth every penny to know engine temp. Maybe give them a call and see what they can do, or check in with Jeff Slavens Racing. Both places have been pretty helpful when I call and need some special help.

John is this really the link you used for the trail tech gauge handle bar mount. The website listed seems odd when I open up the link. Also went to Motion Left Mopeds site and is says (permanently closed). If that was the site you used I will give it a try though. Thanks and great videos.

All that you say is so true! That treatland website is so nutty that I didn't expect the bracket to show up but it did. I picked up a few extra brackets since then and they all come in good order with newspaper packing etc. So odd, but products came in perfect condition. 👌

why did u put it on the husky when you ave on the cap the gauge just curious no hate btw love th eproduct thinking of buying one rn

[@oregonmotojohn]

Good question, I wanted to cross reference it with the radiator cap gauge to check consistency between the two. The Handlebar gauge is slightly easier to see, but is redundant as they read exactly the same on my last ride. It was cool to see that they mirrored each other's readings. The rpm/hour gauge would be a better addition if you already have the radiator cap. Thoughtful comment, thanks for chiming in! Ride on!
