suggestions needed

[Larry90]

Hi Guys
Im looking into getting a new bike in the new year,
i currently own a GSX650F which has a gear indicator and would like another bike with this feature,
I would like more of a naked bike rather than full fairing, but cant find many with gear indicator as standard.
Engine size from 600cc and upwards.
Any suggestions??

If you can't work out what gear you are in then you have problems. Buying a bike for the feature of a gear indicator is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. There are so many great bikes you are missing out on!

Just get one retrofitted, they're not expensive. If you get an ER6n, I know they're super easy to fit, just plug in to a port under the seat. My ER6f had a GI pro indicator fitted when I bought it.

Edit: turns out they're expensive

As above, if it's something you really want, I'd expect most modern motorcycles can be retro-fitted with a gear indicator.

Healtech stuff is well good quality.

I fitted a GI gear indicator to the ER650F. As Stinkers mentioned, there should be a receptacle/socket in the harness under the seat to simply 'plug n play'.
Only 'hassle' would be routing the cable to somewhere you can see it.
And check before you screw or glue that you can see the indicator in daylight.
It has a speshal prastic 'lens' material that cuts out glare but that don't mean it is visible in all lighting.
And don't run the cable near hot shit or where it can be schnecked/pinched between moving parts. £99 big ones to chop in half is not funny.

The ER6 goes much faster now with the GI.

Easier to install and better than the purple power band I fitted (which failed miserably the week after and I stupidly bought the new PB off ebay so no warranty on it. )

You'll want to start a new thread in the Workshop section.

I'd suggest that you tell us what you've done to find the source of the oil leak. Not here, in your new thread.
