My old 86 or 87 or something Suzuki NZ250 had a light for "top gear".

Wish my 2005 Z750S had one. I'm always going for 7th gear.

My alhziemers is not bad enough to need a gear...a gear...a g????? um ....what was it I saying?

[varminter]

Oh, I'm so glad I can come out of the closet, thought I was the only dope looking for non existent higher gears.

But having a gear indicator will save you from looking for 7th gear all the time.

HE,he I thought I was the only one who did that.

Motorcycles are for riding - not wanking about looking at gauges and whatever

A speedo is all the law requires - thats all I'm gonna have

Watching the Aussie V8 supercars on sports the other day... what did i see...

... a great big gear indicator smack dab in the middle of the instrument panel underneath rpm graph.

I've tried to hook 7th several times at the track - or worse thought I was a gear higher than I was and ended up dropping down to 1st or 2nd when I wanted 2nd or 3rd instead.
Locked up the back end a couple of times going into slow corners.

If you're doing it right should know what gear you need for each corner (and what gear you're in tapped out at the end of the straight) so it's should be almost impossible to be in the wrong gear.

Just like a rev counter, what the hell are they for?, I can feel when the bike has stopped pulling, and I can fell when I hit the rev limiter, Ain't going to be looking down at the pretty needle......

I'd agree but my bike pulls all the way to the rev limiter. A shift light would be more useful than the tacho for me.

You'd better install a cup holder on your bike then eh

Yeesh! locking up the back wheel a couple of times futzing around changing down into low gears thinking i wasn't there already an going a little to quick made me sit up and take notice a bit more. I can tell where i am in the top gears but 3rd 4th are no mans land for me on the bandit.
