Hi,

I need to find a clip-on mounted button/switch to control a Magneti Marelli MT940 dash. It needs to be be able to activate one press to scroll through menus and a longer press to select options.

Can anyone recommend anything suitable?

I see that the translogic microdash has an external button, has anyone got one?

I've got one of those KTM mode switches that I wanted to use on my 748 with Translogic dash, but I found that there wasn't enough room on the bar and also that the button would restrict movement on full lock due to hitting the air ducts.

I'm going to try using a basic push-to-make switch mounted via a home-made bracket (I have some left-over carbon from making the dash mount!) and mount it off the clutch reservoir.

TransLogic sell their own button for their dash - it's just a momentary (ie, not latching) push button mounted onto a bar clamp. You should be able to use that on yours if you change the connector.

Part number TLS-HBB-1-B, £49.99 + VAT.
