These essential data help riders analyze their riding style easily, and provide an efficient way to improve the riding skill. It measures and records the 3D motion of your ride, including It is different from other data loggers in the market in that it captures how YOU perform instead of how the bike performs. Corrected a few minor grammar and spelling errors.APEX Data Logger and Lap Timer with Lean Angle MeasurementĮquipped with aero sensing technology and 10 Hz GPS module, APEX is a one-of-a-kind data logger developed for motorcycle enthusiasts.

If all works fine, put back the cluster, attaching the three screws taken out earlier. If it does not, check all your connection points (most likely not grounded correctly). Check the switch and dimmer and make sure they function. turn on parking light to test the indiglo face. Tape the wires up real good and put the light socket back.Ĭonnect the black wire to a good ground source (I cheated and just used a nut on the negative pole of the car battery). Connect the red wire to the green wire of the parking light, using a butt wire tap or solder it in after cutting the green wire, restrip and connect back. Untwist and take out the parking light socket. I removed the battery and used a coat hanger to punch a hole in the rubber bushing and fed the two wires through. These 2 long wires are fed through the firewall at the rubber bushing. The green line is how my wiring is done from the firewall to the parking light assembly. Pepboys or Autozone can sell you a package of wire for less then $2.

Push down firmly, and the black plastic tab should click and snap in place and hold the indiglo face on pretty good. Gently put the hood back on, taking care to keep indiglo face centered with needle's pin. The overlays should now lay flat and not hinder the needle's movement. Untouched, the needles will default to their base points of tack 0k and speedo 0mph. At the time of this writing, in the USA, replacement gauge cluster cost is over $400 - so take your time and use caution. NOTE: Take EXTREME CARE not to bend the needles - although they will break, to this day I have not heard of anyone having broke their needles.

Point both needles upwards (tach ~6k, speedo ~95mph) and gently slide your new set of gauge overlays into position through the circle cutout of the indiglo gauge. Plastic hood cover separated from hood assembly
