Race Technology Dash 2

[DavidC]

oooooooh, for some reason I'm very tempted by this. Could someone post the overall dimensions of the display, I need to know if I can use my current dash with this?

The unit is 150.5mm wide by 102.5mm high with a total depth of 20.5mm or 33.5 if you include the sockets.

PDF of dimensions is here

Just checked with them and delivery to me was quoted at £20 + Vat for 5 units (seems a bit on the high side but I assume there is a large amount of insurance with that) Royalmail Special Delivery to you should be £6 as I am told the box is less than 1kg if they are just over then it will  £7.75, this included £500 of cover.

So I work that out as £457.20 delivered.

Also anyone interested in the Data Loggers etc we should  get 20% off if we have 5 or more.

Thanks

I'm rather tempted by the dash and the datalogger... its a great combo, and better featured than the AIM MXL  (GPS specifically) for the same cash.

Can we get Dash + Data logger for under £900?

If you can get 5+ interested then it will come close to £900 with the VAT

I'll have a DL1 please

I'm gonna regret this, but as I was just about to waste money on an iPod I think I'll spend wisely and got for the Dash2 instead.  Count me in for one.

Edit: I should add that if Paul from Westfield comes back from the meeting today able to match this deal, I'll buy from WSC instead purely because I'll need to pass an SVA with this dash and the standard steering wheel fitted.

I'm almost definite....  i just need to confirm it will work with my CAN protocol on an MBE992c/Hayabusa.  They say it does "as long as MBE supports a standard can protocol unlike motecs".  That's not very definite.... any one here know ?

[neilb]

List so far then:

Dash2 - Bill King, michaelcoombs, stueyb & Me as definites

carlmeek, DavidC - probably

Garry Bunn, Adam123, adamnreeves, DanB and Paul Hurdsfield - interested

DL1 - cidersurfer, DanB

Is this right ?

[DanB]

I'd be interested in a DASH2 and a DL1 - that's what I was going to fit on the racer anyway...

Must resist.....

I'm looking for a dash at the minute...was looking at the digidash 2 lite.

I'm not great at understanding electronic stuff.....can anyone advise how this unit compares, in a bangs/buck and feature sense?

I see you are coming over to the dark side young Oneill    

I told you before you brought a Westfield that your pockets would soon empty

Just spoken the tech guy at Race Tech and they have a CAN interface and had it working with the MBE992, basically as long as the data stream coming from the ECU can me matched to the CAN interface there is no reason why it will not work. Not 100% on the technicality of this but if you can send me the info on the Emerald I will pass it on.

The CAN interface is an extra £100 + Vat as standard (sales guy was not in to ask about discounts)
