Multi-gauge Multi-buy?

[Captain Haddock]

With the gps input connected could the 3rd button be used to auto set the speedohealer factor? Obviously it would have to be done at a steady speed on straight road for gps to keep up, would be a useful feature.

[schlumpf]

The 3rd button could theoretically be used for that. But typically the speedohealer is only adjusted a single time and never again. Don't know if this brings real benefit...
By the way, maybe worth to mention, the digital speedo redout has its own correction factor. And in addition a so called slip correction to increase accuracy at very high speeds. Once set correctly it provides almost the same accuracy as a GPS.

Adding range information to the trip/MPG would also be a doable feature. My only concern is that each change to the SW might have side effects I don't recognize while testing. Therefore I prefer "good old" software. But if you are fine to care some risk I'll give it a try.

is it possible have a white face with the fazer logo on it like the one below  ?

[schlumpf]

Well, that looks like white on white 

Unfortunately I have only black anodized ones with white FAZER on it. But almost any decal maker knows the multi gauge and is able to provide a complete set in any colour you like. They can be mounted on top.

As mentioned - we (I) would be able to supply pre-cut dial colour change - printed with anything you want...

Actually - thinking about it - it would be pretty cool to have the meter faces colour matching the bike colour -

That sound to be a cool option. Let me know if I can support with dimensions for the gauge's face.

I'll have mine colour coded my bike is black

[Captain Haddock]

Is the 12v output by the gps connections upto the load of a 7805 or similar regulator for gps module? Also is it a nice clean supply or straight from the bikes electrics?

Edit: Just spotted the bit about where to get a nice 5v from the clocks themselves, top work Christian!

Just wanted to push this topic up again to raise your attention.
A few members have already contacted me and during the next days I will proceed to begin shipping out. Unfortunately there is no good reason to bundle shippings, destinations are spread all over. Absolutely no problem for me. And any late followers are still welcome.

So far I did not receive any detailed input for software modifications. And I was quite busy to complete the gauges, no time to look into any changes by myself. I can ship "as is", or delay and implement. Please give me a short reply on your preferences.

[Andy FZS]

I would rather wait a short while to consider any software mods. I'll have a read through the posts again and decide what would suit me best. Suggestions from others would be welcome to help decide.
Thanks

is it possible to use this as a standalone gauge?  Will it fit into a gauge holder?

Thinking of replacing the front end with a single headlight and removing the instruments.

Thanks

[schlumpf]

Yes, with some slight modifications it would be able to replace the cluster. The idiots lights have to be added somewhere else. Only for the fan control you have to think of another solution (temp switch from older FZS600 or so).

A while back I did such a conversion for my son's small MZ125. I used 2 gauges. The first to display the odometer exclusively, the second for gear and the rest. The LED band below is for RPM (just to fill the window). The front plate was made of paper.

I did this because the dashboard was given and should stay. In your case I would recommend to go for a KOSO or alike. Makes life much more easy and neat.

Email / Msg sent and order placed...

Cheers Christian... 

+ Payment sent... ;-)

[FuZzBoM]

Just paid for mine.. Cheers Christian.

I would be up for one of these but would prefer to wait for the SW update showing MPG / Range.

[schlumpf]

First results for the modified MPG readout. What's your opinion?
Remaining fuel and MPG (resp. Liter per 100Km) is set into relation. Is that what you're looking for?
But you shouldn't expect too much from this function. Both inputs have their weaknesses.

[Captain Haddock]

Multiguage arrived and fitted, awesome!!!! Just got to wait for my gps module to turn up now.
Thats a cracking bit of kit Christian, a foccing genius indeed.

[schlumpf]

I'm pleased to hear Enjoy it.

Took about 6 days shipping, just for reference.

[FuZzBoM]

Mine also arrived today and fitted this evening. Working great and looks really nice in there.
I was considering the GPS addon but unsure as yet.

Not related to the Multigauge.. I am looking at running the wire to power the headlight relay (sick of clocks having a party when I flick to high beam). Looking around the garage I have some 200 watt/17 amp cable. Would it be safe to use that or should I go get some 30 amp?

thanks,
Rob
