Make sure you know whether your gear indicator on your instruments will still work if you've got one of those plugged in. It might not be a problem for you but it's worth knowing beforehand.

It does say in the description that the OEM gear indicator will be useless if the TRE is switched on.

Heres a really cheap gear indicator ,When it hits the rev limiter change gears

Also plus one on the front wheel being straight on landing

The only gear indicator i ever had on any of my 12 bikes or so was on a spewsuki water bottle

I have bought the thing.
It tells me accurately what gear I am in but the bike thinks she's in 4th 5th or 6th depending on what map I select.
Standard indicator becomes useless, but then that is what I think of them anyway.
If you don't know what gear your in you have no business being on a big bore in the first place
