Whats the deal with the lil meter on the instrument cluster that has the H & L???
Is it engine/oil temp?
Is it battery charge?
I know its not fuel!
its always
in between but after like 30mins its 1 tick closer to the H. Which leads me to believe it monitors the temp, of what i know not
Somebody help me help me please! i hate not being in the know!:confused:

...from the engine as in compression...nahhh, these bikes cant be that advanced, there would be no point and showing the end user that,hell gas level is more important than that. oh and guess what they don'trolleye0010 show that either!

no just the electricity the engine is giving, or how much electricity the battery has.

so why is mine always at mid? i charge the battery until the lil green light comes on(but the red one is on too)...hey wait a minute! does the red light go out on the charger when fully charged???

yeah red light on the charger wall wart! its red when i plug it in and after 3 hrs the green light comes on (on the charger), now is it partily charged when they both are on, and does the red light go out when its fully charged?

if the whole tach is innacurate what makes u beleive the battery meter. i wouldnt trust it. just get a volt tester thing to be safe.

dont even look down at the gauge cluster because everything there is wrong
like not even close wrong
get a vapor if you want accuracy

yeah I've seen the vapor on couple mini alcohol dragsters, ill change it out later, but one thing I do wish is that it had a gas meter! hey are there any panels that have analog tach and rpm info (i want to mimic the hayabusa as closely as possible !)

okay! it is for charge! this morning plugged it up before I went to work, about 4am then when I got back home at about 4pm the indicator was firmly on the H ! (but both lights on the charger were on still ) Now I can rest in the fact I know what it indicates! ....thanks for the help guys

The stock clusters are worthless.
I go with the vapor.Heres an example why i think it's a worthy piece.You can tune your bike better because you can see the results in your speed and on rpms.Plus if you happen to make changes to your carb.If it's running to lean you'll also notice the engine temp will go up.This doesn't necessarily your engine running hot.If it's running higher than a temp that your use to seeing on the that could be one of the problems.ASk me how i know?LOL It's a worthy piece for the price.thumbsup2

Hey baby busa are you going out to the sandy hook track this weekend? I pm'ed ya but you never got back to me on it.
