Anyone has any suggestions please? Thanks in advance for any help.

Look at these for inspiration:

www.canyonchasers.net/shop/generic/sigma.php
www.geocities.com/fwarner_au/mc_things/speedo.html
www.rattlebars.com/vtx/sigma.html

The Sigma BC800 seems to be a popular motorcycle addition. I don’t think the wireless version works very well though. You can probably pick one up on Ebay quite cheaply.

Struggled to get one to work particulary well due to the movement in the wheel from the shocker. Also the radio ones I tried don't work through the headset.
