I have the Moto180 on 77 xs750. Oddly enough, it works great. Locating the hall sensor was pretty easy, but mounting the pick-up took a little patience and a few drinks.

How do those electric gauge clusters work with mechanical cables?

Word of caution on that Dan Moto. I found moisture under the glass & the kph were all wrong. I took it off & discovered that when I tightened the 2 bolts that hold it to the flat piece of stock that I mounted it on, that the plastic cracked around the bolts allowing moisture in. The factory wants it back & I will report back with their findings.

Might have been easier (and quicker) without the "few drinks". :-\\\

the danmoto 180 on mine as well. really cleans up the front on my gsxr conversion

am i correct in assuming that any speedometer with a 2240:60 ratio will work on my '82 GS850G? saw this on ebay after doing a "2240:60" search:

anyone? i need to replace my gauges and i don't want to buy the wrong ratio. thanks

 

[Spiff]

That should be correct yes.

That think looks really cool, I had to take double and triple take.

Ever consider putting a 1st Gen GSXR 750 in it? Then it would have the "bite to match the bark".

Here is a set of '93 GSXR clocks on my '83 GS1100E. I have a '93 GSXR forks on it. My mechanic got the speedo and tach sorted out but the temp gauge has yet to be completed.

Question to the guys that installed a dan moto unit.
how did you get the tach to work?,did you need to use a resistor or diode somewhere in the line?
i got all functions but the RPM to work

thanks

Iirc, the wiring was mislabeled from dan motto for the tach. I'll check mine & let you know.

Ok, just checked my Dan Moto diagram. The rpm wiring was mislabelled in my diagram. You actually want to wire up the blue/black wiring to get the tach to work. At least that's the way mine was.

Let me know if this fixes it, please

 

[eran_k]

Thanks,
I got the colour right, in my unit it's a red\white wire.
Did you just connected the wire to a negative coil terminal and it worked?
or did you have to make some kind of a harness with diodes,resistor and join all the coils?

Eran

 

[Guest]

Nope, just connected it to the appropriate wire in the harness. No fuss, no muss.

Are you sure it's the negative wire at the coil?

 

[eran_k]

The + size of the coil is constant, the negative is the pulsing so i think this is where it picks the signal from

 

[Guest]

Only need one coil hookup?

Does anyone know the Tach ratio for a 1979 GS550? I read that the 850 is a 1:4 and was thinking the 550 would be the same but want to make sure since it takes a few weeks for parts to arrive over here.

 

[tkent02]

The tach drive gear is the same part.
