    Yes they don't sell them as the plug they use is specific just to the 08 blade so they mustn't be very cost effective to sell!

    I've seen them go for stupid money used on eBay as they're hard to find



    I have a healtech gi pro and it's reLly good. Easier to fit than the acumen and quicker display too

    +1 Spoken to acumen and they are not making them so bought the GIPRO and its much better than the acuman anyway and takes 10 mins to fit as it plugs into the diagnostic port near the battery, no cutting, soldering etc

    GPDS-H01-BL

    is the one you want BL is for blue, on the link you enter your bike details and colour req'd in the product advisor and it gives you a part number.

    Hope this helps

    I used these guys for mine and delivery was very quick

    I have the Healtech GI Pro and its very good. They do sometimes work loose from the diagnostic plug according to Healtech tech support.

    There is a gear indicators with a volt meter, shift light and even one with A TRE swell but you don't need all that

    Just the normal gi pro for the blade is ideal.

    I have a red one which I really like.

    Yeah they're worth fitting mate. Saves going for 7th gear and going down the box too many gears!

    I find mine pretty helpful especially using a quickshifter

    Do it Tony, it's an effective 'plug n play' mod, the calibration is a doddle as well - just use your paddock stand and follow the destructions !

    Just fitted a white display Healtech GI gear indicator but its shows a blueish display ?? anyone else had this prob ? Mike at bikersdiscount world (very helpful guy) advised me that the white ones do give off a blue effect ?? Might just swap it for red ??

    Just ordered one too in yellow . . . Fitted one to my 02 R1 and that one was white, bright but no hues of blue though . . . And a blue one was already fitted to my Gixxer 1000, awesome bits of kit that you really miss when you get a bike without one.
