Does anyone install analogue or digital gauges for engine temp, amps, rpm, etc? Or do we all rely on the idiot lights provided by Vespa? Just curious.

Trail tech makes a few items that could be used, particularly a Tach and temp guage. I tend to see these more on vintage bikes, but I've pondered adding one or both.

Available on Amazon as well.

I run the Daytona Digital Tach to help with variator tuning.

I run Westach temp gauges on all my older bikes but don't bother on the new ones.

Trailtech looks pretty damn nice, if a little pricey.

I am planning on putting it on my P200 to provide head temp and RPM, little more critical than moderns, but it would be good for a modern to have some of that info.

The Striker sounds like a better choice for a modern, it has a programmable oil and wrench reminder.
