Really want one, not only for the temp gauge but also for the second mph indicator as my Tv is European with km/h speedo :D
I 've fitted one to mine and I did have clearance problems, even without using the speedo cable (using the electronic sensor).
I still think it's worth fitting, just don't expect it to be "plug & play" as it were.
Not quite sure what you mean by the "second MPH indicator". There is only one speed indicator, it's digital and can be either MPH or KPH but is not changeable on the move.

just had a look at my packaging , it does not mention the low fuel indicator. but as eden says it is in the user manual.

Thanks for the input.

As in regard to the second indicator, if I look at your image I can see the manual speed indicator as well as a second digital one that reads 0 km/h. Not sure if I've misunderstood something though.... ;)

Thanks for the info Eden - I thought that was customisable, either or... :)

Still getting one though, what I need is the temp reading :D

Go for it! With a GP you shouldn't have any fitment issues, and any other little issues (like running a resistor type plug) can easily be resolved.

ive just been out on my scooter with the sip speedo running off the cable with the setting set at .77 like it says in the manual... it reads higher than the gamma speedo. what settings are people entering for the scootrs anti dive front brake speedo drive?

Interesting, mine reads about 3mph fast also (against my gps). Using the same .77 on a standard italian dl hub
