    GS1100 1150? Gear Indicator

    I need a gear indicator that I can use to display all gears. I'm talking about the part that bolts to the cases on the shift drum. The one I have only has neutral. What year, make, model, displayed all gears. My bike is 1980 GS1100.

    Thanks for any help.

            Like tailgunner I use the 1150 indicator plate on the dragbikes. I have a LED mounted near the starter pocket to indicate low gear. (I do my burnout in third) I also have a LED mounted on the side of the shift light to indicate fifth gear. I've punched the button looking for another gear. (I get confused easy)

              Not so Bill. My '80 1100E only has nuetral. Same bike as rosco's. The Suzuki engineers fell asleep on this one.

              Rosco, I think I have the switch from a '80/81 GS750. But you need to have the lights on cluster, too. You got that?

                Thanks for all the input. I'm going to wire up some led's for all the gears. I'm switching to a 1-2 auto and want to make sure I know what gear I'm in when I downshift. Thanks again.

                    There's one on ebay, but harness has been clipped @ 1/2" from plate. (probly salvagable & cheep) G

                      I saw that one on ebay, but probably too short. I've got one on my small tire. I use 1,N, and 5. The rest are cut off. I'm going to watch ebay for an 1150 version.

                              There's one on my 82 GS650g.
                              5 gear indicator, Oil light and some Blue light(high beams?Cant remember).

                              Maybe try to snag one from that, I see a pretty good amount of 650's around....?
