Gear indicators
Noticed that some of you guys have these fitted. Ive also noticed that a acumen loom kit is £100.00! - there are other diy kits on ebay eg.
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_from=...All-Categories How easy would it be to diy one rather than be properly ripped off just coz you get a loom kit with the acumen one?

There is a feed to the ECU that tells it which gear you are in based on a certain voltage per gear. This was for a pointy.

For me it was a project to learn some more Electronics skills, hence the fact one isn't made/on my bike. Not to say I won't make it in the future if I can source the plugs

Re: Gear indicators
3 years off the road and keeping the revs low has made me think about it. Plus im a lazy b and a bit rubbish at remembering what gear im in until i twist the throttle. Considering how cheap you could get one of these set up i thought it was worth looking into it and seeing how acumen are in effect charging you £80 for a small wiring loom i grudge paying to be ripped off.
