Chadatious 0 Posted June 10, 2011 Just abit of advice really.Ive been looking at a gear indicator for my mk1 bandit 600. Reason being i often go down to much into 1st instead of 2nd mainly and then have to change back up, bit of an anoying habbit so thought of getting a gear indicator to solve this. only thing is all i can find is datatool, and acumate ones which are only for digital speedo's, but mines cable.does this mean i have to get a digi speedo to solve this? or can i get one which doesnt need the digi speedo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leicesterdave 0 Posted August 8, 2011 datatool digi indicator do a conversion for a cable tacho,aparently it runs on magnets on the brake disks but be warned it it a bloddy nightmare to set up as you have to programme the thing and to do that you have to earth the wire whilst rideing in every gear. i gave up the idea on my triumph t595 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkember 0 Posted August 9, 2011 Just be aware they are not that accurate & sometimes have a delayed reaction ie: you drop down 2 gears & before it registeres you have already moved up another gear.I do remember the Suzi Katans had a gear display built into the dash. Cool that was back in the 80's what has happened since Suzuki????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
