Has anyone installed an electronic gear indicator on their XB.
My Suzuki GT750 has a gear indicator and I like having it.
On my XB9S I sometimes find myself trying to upshift from 5th gear.
I've seen them advertised for $79, I'd buy one if I thought I could install it.
If someone has installed one, how difficult was it to do?
I know almost nothing about electrics.

I saw this one in a catalog for $79 plus shipping.
I don't want to step on any of the sponsors toes, if they are selling them.

Good question. I've also often thought about installing one of these gear indicators.

I wonder if the unit Trojan sells has a "plug and go" connection for the Buells.
It should be easier to install.

Trojan does offer a "plug and go" unit
Does not mention anything about the price of that one though...

"Plug and go" loom for XB models.
