HealTech Gear Indicator

Has anyone tried to install a "Healtech Gear Indicator". I just purchased one and it will be here Wednesday 8/3. Just lookin for some help.
 
It tells you what gear your in.  I never have seen one or used one.  I just keep the rpm between 2000-10000 and switch gears as needed to maintain that. :)
 
Generally they plug in to the ecu and read the gear position from that. Won't work on the C-10. Did you post in the wrong section?

I thought so, too, Willy, but they apparently make a model that works with any bike (see the last entry on the 3rd page).

It would be nice sometimes not to have to think what gear I'm in.

In that case it you will install a wheel speed sensor and the unit will use that and engine rpm to calculate gear position. I stand corrected.

I would think that it would be pretty easy to install. But, don't see a need, myself, as smithr-scad said:

Soooooooooo I guess no one has installed one. I'll be the first. I am aways looking for another gear. I had one of these units on my other bike and it was very handy. I'm mounting the wheel speed sensor on the swing arm in front of the rear brake caliper bracket. Just aim sensor at the brake disc bolts and we should be good to go. Maybe this is not nessasary but its nice. Beside i like gaggets.

Keep us posted also if it keeps you from looking for one more gear up top.  Those of us without SISF 7th gear mod are still always looking for that gear.  My guess is you will still look for it and then see you are in 6th from the display.  At least you will not try again like I seem to sometimes. :/
