Default temp gauge without replacing stock speedo?

Is there any temp gauge on the market I can install on the klx without replacing the speedometer?

I'm looking at the trail tech gauge and the thermo bob.
I don't want to replace the speedo and I don't want to change the operating temperatures of the engine.
I just want to measure the temp while riding

..so are they're any other options?

Yes. Trailtech TTO temp meter. Easy to install and works perfectly.

There are some other temp gages out there, but I agree with s10gto. Go with Trail Tech.
On the ThermoBob, you can get other termostats if you want to work with the ThermoBob unit, but what watt-man supplies is probably just right. Talk to him about your concerns.

In addition, there is also a coolant cap with temp gauge. But probably not as accurate as the above gauge and not as convenient to look at.

yeah heard of those not being accurate... I guess for my application I don't really need an accurate results.

No that's just the sensor you will get when you select 22mm.
