i have been doing a bit of digging around and from what i can gather with the quick googlefoo is that the general consensus is don't fit one to a pointy.

from what i have gathered you cant just use the harness connected to the original cluster due to it reporting back to the ECU for certain things. now IIRR you can start a pointy with the gauge cluster disconnected from the bike, this is the good news the bad news and from what i have been reading, if you want the idiot lights to work properly and the bike to run you have to take a direct feed from the item you want to use such as the fuel light but you also have to use resistors for the LED's to function properly.

all the information i have looked at is a bit vague and there seems to be definite 'how to' guide.
