if you see the cheap chinese copy of the koso clocks steer clear - i have one and it looks ok and speedo works
but rev counter is a bit slow and the fuel guage wont work i have full and one bar less than full
go the extra mile and buy the proper koso it will last longer comes with better instalation instructions and has all the settings you will ever need
the wiring is actually fairly simple once your in there just have a good look at the wiring diagram for a 12v that goes into the clocks then feeds down to the speedo sensor make sure that wire down has 12v feed to it to get it to work
you could use the magnet sensor instead but oem sensor must remain for the ecu to operate correctly so just encorperate the oem into aftermarket speedo
What kind of ECU issues? The Yamaha front wheel magnet sensor isn't connected on my bike now, however the Bike still (appears to) run perfectly.
I added a genuine KOSO Digital Speedo. The KOSO Speed sensor lead (3 wires) that comes out of its wiring loom end at a Plug. You are then supposed to use KOSO's own magnet sensor, suitably positioned. Theirs however operate on 5V, and a 12V supply would likely fry the speedo (as per the original sensor).
Discussing this with KOSO they were reluctant to offer a solution (KOSO Speedo unit> to >original Speedo sensor) and strongly suggested only to use their Speed sensor accessory, or I could invalidate the warranty on the Speedo unit purchased.
