For some reason, I thought you already had one.
I bought mine from Calsportbike.com over a month ago, love it. Install is a piece of cake. I was hoping to mount the unit under the seat, but that's actually more difficult to get to (from the speed sensor wiring) than the front faring area. I ended up zip-tying it underneath the left-side ram air intake so I can press the recall button easily (I didn't get the remote button version).

Thanks Matt, I ordered a 16t sprocket for the front, so now the speedo will be way out and worse than before...that's the only reason I need it. Top speed, that I can get from the GPS so I didn't order it with the remote cable. Have all of my HID ballasts and ignitors in the front as well as the PC3...so it might be a wee bit tight. What was the wire color for the VSS/Speedo connection...did you grab it at the tranny or the cluster?

You grab it down at the tranny, near the sprocket cover. The pulse wire comes from there, and it already has a connector that's very easy to get at. The Kawi harness comes with a male & female version of that same connector, so tapping into that signal and replacing it with the speedo healer's signal is very easy. The Kawi connector is consistent between bikes (12R, 14, etc), but the pinout is different. They send you the wires with tabs already attached, all you have to do is insert them into the connector for the proper pinout for your bike.
The speedo healer has a cable that's about 3' long (can't remember exactly) - one end has those two connectors side-by-side, the other end has the speedo healer unit itself. I attached both connectors down at the pulse output plug, then stuffed them back up behind some other wires so you can't see them (the new connectors are white, but the original connectors were black - so you'd see the white plastic if you didn't hide them). Then I ran the wire up to the underside of my left ram-air tube and zip-tied it there. You can't see it, but you can feel it if you turn your bars full-right, then run your hand down under the left ram-air tube. I doubt that you have any of your HID stuff all the way down there.

Yes. You won't notice anything different, except that the speedo/odo read correctly. And if you curious as to just how fast you were going, you can push a little button on the unit, look at your speedo, and it will display your highest speed. Money well spent. BTW, I installed mine under the seat next to my powercommander. Total time to install and set up-15 minutes.

Cool. I have no more room under the seat. Scorpio alarm and a spot for the PC and an auxillary fuse box to power extra gear without having to go to the battery or tap into wires.
I'll have to go with the forward location.

One package -- you can choose which harness, but I guess you would want the Kawasaki harness, which fits most Kawi's except for the Vulcna 2000 I think (different harness). Price should be between 90-100 bucks total.

I talked to Vortex today. They said they just completed a batch of C-sprockets today. He ventured to say that the 1 tooth down ZX14 sprockets were in that batch.If so, I'll have'em next week. You got that FBA? I'll drop ya an e-mail when they ship. I've got a few diff. size rear sprockets too. Gonna play alittle!

Thanks ZX1KR...ship all when ya get 'em! Far as rears go...think I'll just stay with the front for now...not that I even need to change that; there's so much damn power in this motor. It's just that in case I ever meet Dubious in the street, I don't want him to have the advantage over me in a race. You never know -- he only lives a few thousand miles from me...:P

I was runnin' w/ TRU195 last sunday, he had 1 tooth down on the front & 1 up on the rear. We did a roll on, I'm in 5th , He's in 6th. Dead Even! He ran to Top Speed & pulled 185mph. I'm going for the same thing. I got a few more ponies & 20lb less weight. That all adds up to my buddy TRU195 getting a license plate reading lesson!
