speedo healer with recall button?

I've been looking into this and I think the recall button is a great idea. Is it available for the vtrs and what's the going rate for one? I know there are gonna be different prices from different sites but I'm wondering what a good price is.

A about $100 from SoloMotoParts.com. Quick shipping. Price is typical of the going rate.

mine has the recall button and works great...just don't put it in plain sight in case somebody you don't want seeing it finds it

It's a great tool for getting the speedo right.. Very easy set up... Like mine a lot. Speedohealer V4 under $100 if you look around.

big problem with the button. you are always wanting to see your new 'high'. or you swap off bikes with a friend and they want to see what their high can beat your high. its a dangerous incentive to ride fast. don't do it. you will find yourself pushing the button a lot - (which I think can lead to blindness also). just leave the bad speedo alone, inaccurate and all. in fact change gearing and tire size too to make it even further off and imagine you are going as fast as the speedo says you are and be content. its safer. you'll be happier.

i just bounce it off the rev limiter ( at the track ) in 6th ( -1, +2 ) so there is no going faster. .i have my switch under the seat... out of sight out of mind.

Same place as mine... I did use it when calibrating... Never looked at it since...

Lol good to know. I just prefer it over looking down at 130 mph to see how fast I'm going. My buddys triumph has one factory and its sweet. Thanks for the info.
