What Gear Indicator

My daily bike has one (Street triple) and my trackbike so now need one on the blade. Looks like it'll be a GI pro now thanks for the recommendations

 

gipro ds had them on 3 bikes

 

I struggle with counting upto and down from 6 so this thread gave me an idea. I like the looks of the GiPro and want to ask how easy is it to install, what has to be removed from the bike to run the harness through to under the seat (assuming it connects under the seat) and for a C-ABS model is the connector available for it to plug into?

 

+1 and can we have some pic to show whats ? what ? for us knobs who havin got a clue thanks xxx

It's easy peasy to fit once you ve found connector under seat.....

 

Rob what are you selling Gi Pro?

 

Billo01,
As Repsol Rob has said, it's easy peasy it's no different on the C-ABS model to fit, I fitted one to my C-ABS at the weekend.
The red plug you connect it into, sits on the left hand side (clutch side) under the seat by the battery.
The tricky part is running the cable making sure it's tucked away nice and neat.
I'll take pictures if it helps when I get home tomorrow.

 

Yup its easy peasy just as barry says . The red block connector is easy to find under the loom wires just by the battery .
Feed the wire nice n neat then plug in . Small set up by riding through the gears ................ done

 

Here is a photo of mine when it was fitted....
Dead easy. I took the tank cover off to hide the cables.
It's currently sat on the shelf with all the other bits ready to be sold!

 

Thanks all for the replies. Sorry samuk for hijacking your post, but a useful post for me all the same!!

Barry107 - yeh if you could do this with pics it would be much appreciated by myself and I'm sure cbr1 too. If i go for the GiPro any recommended outlet to purchase from?

Cheers

 

Have a look at this thread for the GiPro installation. Hope it's useful.

not sure if the above is the same for a RR5? pics are not loading up on there..

 

i am about to buy a GIpro - off a 2011 Blade..

will this fit my RR5? anyone?

Thanks

 

I have just done a search on Bikers discount store GIpro DS Series Gear Indicators.
It returns the same code for a GIPro for both 2005 and 2011 blades.
Check it yourself matey just to be sure.

 

you got a little connector at the other end of the cable? what does it plug into?

 

On my RR5 the DLC (data link connector) that you plug the GiPro into is behind the left upper fairing and not under the seat, I spent ages looking under the seat after looking at other forums lol. So check there

 

thanks Simon, dis you need to take off your nose cone..?

Any pictures?
