    I used the GIPpro http://www.healtech-electronics.com/products/gpds/

    Simple to fit not expensive and handy to have. Fitted took about 15 mins on my 11 plate blade.

    And I would suggest contacting the traders below as they do give a good discount . So worth knowing

    Never been a issue. I know many who have used one and never been a problem. Had mine fitted for 3+ years and worked a treat every time. never a problem.

    i've not heard anything about them being a issue either.

    Anyone else?

    Nope just work out where to put it by the dash. run the wire below tank cover under seat. connect it and then get the bike on the stand and do as per instructions for setting up

    Simple and easy job

    One thing I noticed was once I fitted mine (purchased SH from here) it never went into the learn mode and just worked!

    The only thing I sketched on is running it in gear on the stand.... never done that, I mean 4th,5th,6th at above idle...surely still a potential disaster ?
