I and my friends are thinking to trying to make a display which shows the status of the gear the bikeis is in. We are thinking to do this setup on a R15 and a 220, need some help if anyone one can throw some idea on how to go about it

I’ve been thinking about this one since a long time back. There have an after market gadget called ‘Gear Shift Indicator’, its digital display displays the accurate gear number the bike is in. But I doubt that its available in India, so far no luck.Originally posted by HotAntivirus View Post
But as I’ve very less time due to my work, so couldn’t able to do R&D on it. One advice I can give you that if you can manage the Suzuki GS150’s neutral switch and is it’s a direct fit to R15 and P220 then with a easy LED setup you can get it done easily.
I prefer Suzuki GS150 only for this add-ons and it worth it as it has 6 gear. But still in all 150cc bikes these days has 5 gears so all manufacturer should think about this. Sometime at higher speed its get hard to realize the bike is in 4th gear or in 5th gear.Last edited by soumen.sam; 01-10-2011, 06:22 PM.Speed is a joy but roads are not race track.

If that can be done, I would love to do that. As I feel there are two things that should be easily added to the console of the premium bikes available here, and those two things would be:
1) A digital clock to show the time
2) Gear shift assist

AFAIK,there is a contact plate which make a ground connection to the body when the gear is in neutral.
So you cannot get the gear position directly.
SO what can be done ?
You can make a custom hall effect sensor and a circuit which calculates the number of up's and downs of the gear lever and then displays the gear position on a lcd.

Though this is an old thread , but can't resist to put something .
Guys if i remember correctly there is an bike Kinetic Challenger before some years which has the gear indicator .
So if any one have it or wiring diagrams with shop manual , then i think it would be easy to make one .Comment
