Lets face it - the TLR is an old school machine, and as a result has some old school parts, like the SRAD Gauge cluster seen in older GSXR750’s and 600’s ..One of the coolest mods you can do to your TLR is to swap out the antique instrument panel and replace it with a modern digital panel. I used a panel from a K2 Gixxer 1000. This mod does require some rewiring of the headlight harness as the signals sent from the TLRs ECU are different to that of a Gixxer one. This loom modification takes about 20 minutes, its best fo you aquire a spare loom to do the rewire in case you ever want to go back to the old gauge for fault code reading etc. Everything works as it should ont he Gixxer gauge except for the water temperature sensor, againt his is a wiring issue and hopefully some day i will work it out, for now though i operate my radiator fans on a switch. If im sittign in traffic for a prolonged period i turn on the fans manually.

Check out this picture of the stock POS Gauge and then compare it to the new GIxxer cluster below - Gixxer wins hands down !!!

Very little modification is required to the stock gauge / headlight holder to accomodate the Gixxer gauge !

And now everything back together - looks cool huh ??

You can find Gixxer 1000 gauges on ebay for as little as 100 Euros, a spare headlight harness which will need to be rewired can be had for as little as 20 Euros !!!
