- Honda forgot to install a tachometer on the CRF450L so 12oClock Labs fixed that with their Advanced Mini Gauge. And now that it can be used with a Vortex ECU the other half of the CRF450L owners can enjoy knowing which gear they're in.

“Why it doesn’t have a tachometer”... you crack me up John! Thanks for video.
That's my goal, to crack everyone up. Thank you.
Since the 250L dash has a tach on a good display, it really is a letdown that they didn't just use the same part on the 450L.
its almost like cheating.... letting you do all of the R&D and then deciding which way to go on my 450L after your reviews! Tell you what.... I buy the beer after we ride the NVBDR!! Keep up the great work John
I like beer. You got it!
Excellent channel and a great guy, thank you for all the helpful info you share, you rock man.
Thank you for watching!
Good video, I see I have to order the whole kit for everything to work.
Yes you do
Solid DIY! Nice gadget.
Sure is. Stupid money, but very handy.
Thanks, best instructions I found by far.
Thank you
Excellent video bravo! could you possibly do one on checking the valves sometime please John, regards Stu.
Hi Stu. I am almost to the point I need to do a check, so yes... I will.
Done did it!
I will put this on after the 10 other mods I have planned first 😆
The list just keeps getting longer........
12oclock labs make nice kit, a little fiddly to set a little expensive. Still a great and so far in my use very durable.
That's good to know. I was a little worried about durability. It's so tiny!
i have watched almost all of your videos now and because of your reviews i have made many purchases for my 2019 450l lol. but there is one install that i have not seen or i missed and that is the scotts steering stabilizer install, i would like to know if you are happy with it and is it something you would install again if you didn't have one. thanks
I tried to make a video of the install and butchered it so badly that I burned the SD card it was on... Having said that, I really like the damper and it's essential on the highway at 75 MPH with tall front tires.
@@JohnTYoung Cool, so it's more of a high speed thing. I wasn't sure if it was a low speed, baby head ripping your handlebars left or right kinda thing.
Great video. I wish the CRF450RL would come with the CRF300l’s dash.
YA!
Hi John, did you make a small bracket for installing the gage with double sided tape or what? Looks like it’s secure enough. Thx
Yes. Double-sided Gorilla tape and an L bracket.
Shoulda just installed a Vapor dash 140 bucks and does everything. Love mine and big numbers, temp, Rpm, speedo corrected. Trip meter. Warning lights.
Maybe with the next build I'll give them a try. Does it work with the Vortex ECU? That seems to be the sticking point with these dashes.
@@JohnTYoung I don't believe any Trail Tech displays have gear selection, so there's that.
Hi Hi. I own a 2022 CRF450RL. Its brand new. I was changing the speed from MPH to Km/h and one I finished now the odometer stays in 0 and doesn’t indicate speed at all while I’m riding. Any help? I made the change according to the owners manual. Thanks
Make sure your speedo wire and wheel sensor are OK
Hi John,
Great video. Can I please ask how the 12oclock wiring, vortex ecu and 20 litre nomad tank. Do it all fit in ok without the wires being to stressed? A photo would be great! Many thanks Andrew
Hi Andrew. It's pretty tight in there for sure. I added 5000 or 6000 to the bike last year with no issues tho.
Thanks for your videos! Always Instructive and detailed! Did you already have the 12oClockLabs SpeedoDRD Speedometer Calibrator ? I am not sure if I need to buy it when ordering the Mini Gauge. ( I also have the Vortex on mine) Thanks in advance for your help
No. I bought it all at once and installed it. I'ma Mini Gauge Newbie! Thanks for watching.
Those don’t look like Motoz H/Ts...what tires are you running now?
The HTs went on after this video. You gotta wait another week. Sorry.
John, are you still happy with the mini gauge?
Yes, It's still working great through winter, rain, and me crashing all the time.
Is there a secret to the gear learning procedure? Just spent awhile trying to get mine set and could not.
I take off in 1st and it says “Learning 1st Gear”. It then says to shift and I do that but I never see “Learning 2nd Gear”. All it says is to shift. At this point I’m in 2nd gear so I shift to 3rd. Same thing all it says is to shift. So I shift again to 4th, same deal. I get to 6th gear and it still says to shift. Very frustrating. Curiously if I start shifting down to say some random gear like 3rd and I slow down then it says “Learning 2nd Gear” then says shift. Same issues after that,. Am I doing something wrong?
Set your speedo and your GPS speedo so they are the same. The closer they are to being in sync the easier the rest is. When it's learning a gear hold that speed and rpm until it tells you to shift to learn the next gear. The steadier you hold the speed while it's learning the easier it is to do. Those are the two tricks.
Ok. I used the default value for the speed calibration and it was good. Bike speedo was ever so slightly showing a 1mph speed change like less than half a second before the Mini Gauge showed the same speed. I have to think that’s close enough for that value. I’ll have to try again another time. Can you confirm though that after a requested shift I should be seeing “Learning X Gear” on the gauge? It should continue to say that until it requests the next shift? After which I should see again “Learning X Gear”?
@@bizzfo Yes, as long as it is in learn mode.
🤘🏻🇺🇸
Wonder how it compares to the Trailtech.
I really like the Trail Tech screen. A lot! But they do not have all the functions of the Mini Gauge and I'm not sure they would work with the Vortex.
New vid 👌😅👍
I try for every week... but life.
Keep your old dash, doesn’t go through the Vortex. I’d send you pics of my ride but can’t here. Got email , I’ll send. Do search, few UA-cam vids on them John.
The Mini Gauge doesn't replace your dash, though I guess it almost could. It does not have the MPG figures which I use quiet a bit.
Sooo many wires! 😂
Right? Mini Gauge, Heated Grips, 12 Volt Cigarette , 12 Volt USB, 12 Volt Helmet Light, Turkey Deep Fryer ....
I have it too, it works great. due to Vortex, I ordered an AMG adapter ... but I feel like she's sailing with Greta Thunberg by sea, it's the second month and still undelivered🤣🤣No, the problem is in planes, they don't fly🥺
Patience. Eventually she'll get across. :)
Gotta disagree with you on this one, John. Except to maybe adjust idle speed, I can't imagine I'd ever want a tach. Now, I have wanted a speedometer on some bikes that didn't have one.
Don't forget it tells you what gear you're in too. In case you forget.
@@JohnTYoung The diagnostics display could also be helpful.
Yikes I’d just get one of the cheapo amazon ones
We'll see how long this one lasts...
John T. Young better last a while haha I do see now it has some additional features , still pricey though !
