    Quick question on GS550 instruments

    I'm thinking about modding the user interface of my GSX750ES somewhat. Here's a prelim test fitting of regular handlebars in place of the stock "stalks".



    Stock:




    Now, next thing is to replace the huge information centre with something a bit more modern. I'm thinking about this thing from Germany:



    It costs and arm and a leg so I have to think hard about it. But it doesn't come with a fuel level and as you might expect there are no provisions for the gear position indicators. So I thought I might rip out the gear and fuel indicators from another GS and put them in their own instrument housing on the side. Found this on eBay:



    Before I buy it, is that window on top the gear position? Most GSes came with these right? Second is a bit of a long shot, do you think that -81 GS550 fuel gauge has the same ohm range as my 86 GSX750ES? If it doesn't, could I fool it somehow with adjustable resistors?

    Thanks much for any input!
