Default Speed sensor Trail Tech Vapor

The GasGas EC 125 2006 comes with a Trail Tech Vapor computer OEM.
This includes the speed sensor, temperature sensor, etc.
However I can't find anywhere to screw in the speed sensor.
Im pretty sure its supposed to be screwed into the brake caliper, but I cant find anything there, on the forks, on anything.
Anyone know anything about this?

It's just a reed switch.

IF you look above the lower caliper bracket bolt, you'll see an 8 mm threaded hole.

Buy one of these: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail...QaAlrKEALw_wcB

Then, splice that into the wire coming out of the reed switch you're holding, thread the new reed switch into that 8 mm threaded hold, and plug the other end into your computer. You'll be good to go.

Curious about this also. I don?t have any computer on my 2011 ec250. I was looking at buying a Vapor but have no idea how I could mount it with the Flexbars

Noobi06 just make a bracket to hold the sensor and use one of the caliper bolts to mount it.

Wbdisco I made a mounting bracket and bolted it to one of the crossbars.

I can take some pics Friday if you like.

My bike had holes in the triple clamp from stock, which also comes with a bracket which you can buy OEM in the parts diagram of the 2006 Ec 125

Default Work?

I cant find the hole you are talking about. I dont want to be drilling or purchasing stuff. This must have been screwed on somehow sometime.
Either way, I was thinking glue or double sided tape on the fork or something. Do you think thats a good enough idea?
Can be seen on this video at 7:47

You cant stick it on the fork leg like the video you have inverted forks the suspension working will knock it off. I will get you some pics tomorrow.

Noobi06

The first pic is the sensor you should have, what you have is a universal sensor. The second and third pics is the bracket I made for my DR350. I made it out of some recorder inch strap aluminum.
