    Homemade shift light?

    Does anyone know of any shift light kits? I just want to do something like have a set of superbright LED's that will flash when I get close to the redline, so adjustable pickup would be good.

    Sounds wankerish, but the bike doesn't sound like it's straining when it's sitting at or near redline, and I don't want to have it bouncing of the limiter all the time.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    They look pretty cool - how muchly?

    I notice in the sample images most bikes are Hondas. This is probably due to Honda owners being very caring people who look after their rides

    I've seen those before, I just want a single light that will light up/flash at or above a certain RPM setting - suchas you have on modern R6/R1 and GSXR dashes.

    I used to have a schematic for one very similar to sift-i one where you could set the points each LED came on at, if you want I will see if I can find it.

    Should be plenty around the net I would have thought.
    Its not the destination that is important its the journey.
