I now know how fast I am going. :lol:

So stokes...tried it out today and it is nice and easy to read. :beers:

Aside from the broken needle...that jumped and bounced when you drove over 60...the upgrade also gives me turn signal indicators (never worked on the old gauges) and display lights if I ever need to ride at night again.

Although the oil temp is not hooked up yet and the tachometer is acting a little fishy...said I was hitting red line in 6th gear going 70 on the freeway. :lol: Hubby thinks he knows the problem so not too worried about that.

[Sixxxxer]

I remember the Old tach on my ZX7...It would started freaking above 100 b/c of the vibrations.

Digital is pimpin tho!!

Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to get a stock unit off ebay? Plug and play.

I wanted digital. :beers:

:lol: I don't care for it, but good for you :didntdo:

[Gas Man]

Awesome.

How long to install?

Hard job?

Did the bike have a cable speedo or electronic?

Did it have a tach before?

Tach problem could be a smiple change in how many cylinders you have in the dash settings.

The install was not terribly difficult but it was time consuming to figure out and splice together all the wires. Also, the hubby had to design and fabricate brackets for the speed sensor and display mounting. :td: It came with a display mounting bracket but it would not have worked for mounting it in the stock location.

Original speedo was cable which is why I had to mount a new speed sensor instead of tapping into a stock electronic signal.

It did have a tachometer before and it worked fine. The setting are fine but Hubby thinks that the way he put the excess wire (instead of cutting it off) is messing with the signal. He is going to redo it when he puts the new water (not oil) temperature sensor in.

And went back to 44 miles!! :rockwoot:

[azoomm]

I thought I'd hate digital when I went to Boo....but I love it. Congrats on finishing the mod.

That is the trip meter...rode about 130 miles yesterday...

But yeah...it is at less than 200 miles now. :lol:

Sweet set up! Hubby scored some points on the install I hope!?

[Gas Man]

Well good deal girl. Looks way better.

[Particle Man]

looks really good!

[racedoll]

Sounds like it was worth the wait!

[Mrs. Colleen]

Sweet set up! Hubby scored some points on the install I hope!?

:lol: Yes. :D

Although I think he was just as excited as I am about it. He loves to help me mod my bike. :beers:

[Gas Man]

Don't all husbands?

[the chi]

Thats awesome! I hope you continue loving it. I know I prefer the digital to the non dig versions.

[Cass]

Nice! Congrats :)
