- Sick of trying to get in to 7th gear? Fed up of excitedly dropping down 'some' gears only to find that you dump the clutch in to 1st coming in to a fast right hander? I know I am!!
Well thankfully no more! Healtech have kindly provided me with the newest gear indicator in their range, The GIpro X-Type G2, to show off to you lot how good it is!
This gear indicator has a LOT more to offer than it's predecessor. Gear change light, Speed warning light, Shift warning light, Adaptive screen brightness and touch controls to fiddle with them all!
First step, let's get it fitted to the bike...
To help, here's some FZ1 specific instructions from Healtech that helped a lot with my install! :

Just wanted to say thanks for uploading this video! It made my installation so much easier. Especially that little trick about the cable colors for the speed sensor and brake power cable. Much appreciated!
My pleasure and thanks for letting me know! Happy to help 👍🏻
Great vid Andy. It still fries my brain when it comes to wiring stuff and that’s even with the modern ‘Plug and Play’ technology - and I just dream that my bike was like that!!
You’ve managed to explain it out well and I’m sure you’ll be helping out loads of people with this addition to their bikes.
Thanks Mark. Very kind of you to say so. Hopefully that is the case and I've helped a couple of folks! 😇
"I now pronounce you cable and cable"... comments like these make this video a joy to watch!
Cheers mate! I honestly don’t really know where the nonsense comes from! My wife would likely prefer that there was less of it! 😂
You’re the reason why i bought the healtech gear indicator for my fz8 and works perfectly. Thanks amc, appreciate the installation instructions, helped me big time.
My pleasure mate! Glad you’re happy with the kit! 👍🏻
Your gear indicator is about a million times complicated than everything combined on my bike. Scary stuff.
Haha! Just wait til i install the ejector seat and the laser rangefinder!
Hi Andy love your vids, this one was extremely helpful as I've just followed it to fit my own gipro to my 06 FZ1. Keep up the good work. Lots of respect from an ex-pat living near Rotterdam 👍
Thanks Mick! Very happy to have helped mate! 👍🏻
Hi Andy, I have bought myself a gear indicator too. I have learned a lot from your video. But I did it a little bit different. I taped the green/black wire to the gear position sensor. After that I pulled the wire out of the frame. The wire is long enough to do so. Then I made the connection to the gear indicator and pulled the wire back into the frame.
Nice. Sounds like a tidy install, good work.
Very nice of them to add that loom. I've been eyeballing a gear indicator for my FZ6N S2, so now I know what to get. Just gotta get that license first, but come spring I'll get that done. Winter in Sweden is extra wintery this year, tons and tons of snow. #iwantsummer. Congrats on the 10K subs.
First things first eh!? Good luck with the test. Though the biggest challenge will be being patient!
Well I made the "mistake" of getting started in August-September, so winter was just around the corner. Bought a bike, all the gear, went out for a few rides with some friends (one of them being my teacher). So It was pretty frustrating storing the bike away for the winter, putting the cover over it and all that, and I just want to get back out there again. But being a 35 year old father to a little ball of energy (he turns 3 in April, my oh my time flies) I can surely say that patience is one of my virtues. And good thing there are good motovlogers like yourself out there putting out content that eases the frustration of not being able to take a ride myself. The garage videos are my favourites, but that Croatia trip was also very good. Have a good one! Cheers!
That is awesome timing! But i get it. I bought the FZ1 in October so just in time to stick in the garage for the winter! 😂 I'm glad the videos help though! Couple more garage spots coming before the riding starts! Cheers mate!
very nice video. Thanks to you I have bought and installed a gipro on my ZX12R. It was not so difficult in the end, but your video was of great help. thanks!. Please continue with your videos.
Glad it helped! Thanks!
Most of these extras aren't really my bag but do thoroughly enjoy your installation videos Mr Mancam
That's a fine accolade! Thanks!
Great vid! Also connected my GiPro today on my FZ1-N and works like a charm💪🏻
Thanks Harpo! Glad to hear it’s working out for you!
Good to watch as I don't have a gear indicator on my 2008 triumph speed triple and now it seems to be a great purchase as it is easy to install I'll be ordering one very helpful and thanks again for your video on this 😍
My pleasure! Thanks for watching. It’s an invaluable tool and i love having it!
Hi Andy, many thanks! Just recived my GIpro G2 for my FZ6N wich i'm gonna fetch next week from the dealer. Hope your video will help installing it on a diverent FZ 🤞😉
Well, your video helped a lot 👍 many thanks! Still got one question, hope you know the answer 😁 it only shows the gears when my clutch lever is released during riding. Is it possible that it will also show the gears i'm in, while the clutch lever is pulled back? Many thanks in advance 👍😁
Ah, thanks for this! Same for my 07 R6. This wiring worked for my speedohealer.
Excellent, glad to hear it!
Hey Andy, I'm just in the process of using scotch locks to hijack the parking light wire on my FZ1 but don't know which is positive/negative. The only reference I have is that one wire coming off the switch is green with a red stripe. Do you by chance know if that's positive or negative? Does it correlate to the black or red wires I need to use to hijack?
As I watched you stick the gear indicator on the ‘Mostly straight edge of the dash’, all my OCD alarms went off simultaneously!! Aah! Lol!
Haha! The drugs help with the indicator leaning at 20 degrees to the right! 'Mostly straight' what an oxymoron!
Thanks a lot for all your installation vidéos "yet, it makes my life a lot easier" !
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for posting this. I have an FZ8 so the process is identical. Made it so much easier
Very happy to help! 👍🏻
hey mate, just found your videos. great content and channel with no fluff bullshit. thanks for the videos, i've subscribed! cheers from australia
Cheers mate! Great to have you on the team! Glad you like the style!
in a funny turn of events, I picked up an FZ1N today - partly due to your videos! time to put them to good use now
Thank you for this very instructional video! I'm gonna buy soon one kit form my Hornet S '02
My pleasure! Enjoy!
Quality video. Surprised it doesn't have more views
Thanks mate! Just need folks to like it and share it on, then I'll finally be able to take over the world!!
thank you for the video, I did the installation myself and everything works the first time. 🤙🏻
Thanks a ton! This is pretty much exactly the same on my FZ6 and the Amazon kit I used 👍
Hi, Thank you for this video. Today thanks to you I installed this on my XJ6n. I was the one who never used those red things for cables connection so I learned from every detail of your video. Good advice with colours check in plug from engine not the sensors side. For now i have display temporary installed on my windshield mount (can't decide yet where to stick it permanently)
Thanks for the video, i also got this wrong with the gray wire and didnt know why the heck it didnt work! :-)
Haha! So happy that I wasn’t the only one!!
@@AndyManCam Does it have to go the crank position sensor side of the connector or doesn't it matter. Could you have tapped into the grey wire from the bike side?
Worked perfectly for me cheers mate 👍🏼
Glad to hear it Chris. Cheers!
Thx for making this video! Will help me through this weekend project ahead of me 😎
Hello man !
I'm french and I thank you A LOT for your video ! Your explainations are easy to understand ! Very good job ! Thank you very much ! Goodby !😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
My pleasure Jimmy! Glad I could help!
Does it keep track of your gear by the speed you are going/ rpms? Not what actuall gear you are in? Example, if I'm doing 100 in 2nd gear will it think I'm in 6th? Higher rpm equals a higher gear?
It does use rpm vs speed to calculate the gear. But if you’re doing 100 in 2nd, the rpm‘s will be a lot higher than if you were doing 100 in 6th. So it doesn’t ever get confused.
Andy the man! Spent all morning watching your vids, shared with my 2 wheeled friends to subscribe too. Q- mine's a 2013 fz1n (abs). Manual says its for fz1 up until 2010... You think it's just knowledge gap about the bike why Healtech didn't put all FZ1 series? I'm puzzled, really want one on my bike
Hey thanks! That’s the kind of stuff that can make a channel successful, so I really appreciate it! No idea why it might stop at 2010. maybe the connector is different? Or probably, as you’ve said, the list just hasn’t been updated. I’d recommend sending an email to Healtech customer support. They’re extremely helpful and they know their stuff inside out.
You've got some nice looking vehicles in that garage!
Sadly I've only got one vehicle in that garage! And not even a complete parkspace! 😂
does it work based on RPM's or the actual gear shift? basically will it tell you what gear you're in if you come to a stop in any gear any change gears?
It calculates the gear based on rpm and speed. So when you’re stopped with the clutch pulled in, it won’t show a gear until you start to move again.
Little bit more complicated than the previous plugging into the diagnostics but I assume the additional features you'll show us in the next video will make it worth it.
Absolutely. I think they will from what I've seen already.
I really appreciate you doing all this cabling and wiring stuff so that I know what never to do on my bike, Mr 10Kmancam. :-D
Haha! My pleasure mate! I'm here to save you time! Cheers!
The cabling on the FZ looks quite a bit more cramped than on the Versys, doesn't it?
It is. Way less space to hide it i guess. It's also WAY shorter! I have to extend everything to change the bars! 😣
Not if you get hipster clip-ons. I mean, who actually needs to turn.
Nicely done sir, nicely done
Cheers Chop!
Nice job mate. Definitely some to consider for my cruiser.
I hate the idea of NOT having one!
Loved the vid, quick question if you don't mind as I'm looking to get one myself. On the website under colour it mentions part number - GL Pro X type. Probably a stupid question but how do I know which to choose?
Hi,
Is the 2nd gen better than the original, I was thinking of getting one for my Fazer 8,but not too sure about splicing cables etc,the original is just plug and play so is it really in your opinion better?
Thanks
Nelly
As far as i know, you don't have any choice as the DS isn't compatible with the FZ's. I think the diagnostic plug, or lack thereof, means you have to splice wires regardless. It's different depending on the bike.
Love the garage vids.
Cheers Kev!
Thanks for sharing.My next job when I receive my gear indicator.Why it was not installed oe?
My pleasure! I ask myself the same question all the time! I think the answer is 💰!
What type of windscreen do you have on the bike? I have the same bike and I need a small windscreen like yours
It's an Ermax branded one. Not sure of the model as i bought it without any packaging. It's a good size and it fits On The bike very well. I've decided to get rid of it though! I want the pure naked experience!
Thank you for the response. I just fitted the same gear indicator after your instructions, you made the job easy for me. Great video!
👍👍👍Нашими словами. Зелёный проводов к темно-серому а красный к коричневом.👍👍👍
Thanks for such a great video.
Thanks very much for watching Steve!
Thank you bro from Poland
Cheers Mickel! Thanks for watching!
Wait, was that gray wire wrapped around brown wire or green wire spliced to turn signal relay? And which size hammer do I use on this wiring harness?
Hahahaaa! The biggest hammer you've got mate! 😂
great video Andy im really stuck on mine tried both wires on pick up sensor and still cant get it to recognise the gears just flashes L all the time would love some help mate ps iv got a thunderace
I’m afraid I’m really not the one to ask! You’d be better off emailing Healtech directly. They’re extremely knowledgable and really know their products very well. Good luck!
Would you consider doing the intergrated gear indicator? I would be interested to see an install video for that.
I like the idea of having it inside the clocks. Maybe that could be a winter project....
Andy Man Cam I’m looking forward to this
I am installing this to my 2006 vtx 1300. But it does not have a tachometer. So how do you program it then? Thanks.
I'm honestly not sure. Though I would think that Healtech will have thought about it. Probably using the camshaft position sensor or summink.
THX Bro, f....g helpful, very good and easy explanation 🍻
My pleasure mate! Happy to help!
Thank you is really helping me
My pleasure! Happy to help!
Hello. I have an issue from today. Alk installed, but the L is flashing slowly, and wont start to flash faster, not even showing the 1st or other gears. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance
Sounds like your wires are connected up wrong. Have a check and make sure you’ve got the right cables from the bike.
Another good video mate. Have you looked at the healtec quick shifter unit? Have one on my bike and it works great. Up and down shift and all settable via Bluetooth on you phone. Price should be around 280 euros.
Thanks Phillip! I was actually looking at the quickshifter just yesterday! We'll see...
Do you think yo may trade in the bike for a MT10? Anytime soon
Not until i can triple my earnings, sadly! 😂 I may have to try one out anyway though. See how much better it is than my old FZ1.
I've not long passed my test and I've got a CBF 1000 Will it be the same principle to fit one of these to my bike?
I would think so. But it all depends on what kind of connections your bike has. Have a look on the healtech website and it'll give you a better idea of exactly what you need. Either way it'll either be like this one, or easier with a plug and play like i had on the Versys before this.
Andy Man Cam ty for the reply I'll have a look 👍
Nice Job, very well explained. Thank You
Thanks TWE!
Hi Andy, I already have the gear indicator and I need to install also Speadohealer, but they use the same connector. What do I do? Please help!
I'm afraid I have no idea about that. Might be worth throwing Healtech an email direct. I'm sure they must have some kind of solution.
@Ondrej
If you have a SpeedoHealer installed, you have to connect the plugs in-line in the following order: Speed sensor male plug >> GIpro >> SH >> bike female plug.
@AndyCam : Thbak you gor the great video, so useful. By far the best out there. Cheers
Cheers for the assist Frank!
Somehow mine doesn’t want to switche to the second gear, only blinking in “1” slowly…
I have an FZ8-ABS, from 2015 I attached the white wire from the gipro harness kit, to the abs module wiring, because when I disconnect that plug and I spin the back wheel, it shows “0” on instrument cluster, but when I connect it back, works just fine, so I guess the bike reading the speed from the rear abs module.
I tried both of the wires (it’s a white and a light gray) still nothing…
1 thing I am wondering: I remember you striving to have everything able to be rolled back in case you want to sell the bike in the most stock configuration possible. How would you achieve that with this mod?
Easy. Pop the hijack connectors off, wrap the cable with tape. Done.
Brilliant! Thanks Andy :)
Cheers Phil. My pleasure! Cheers for watching.
Oh boy... Just got mine and i see 4 wires gotta be pain in the a$$ to find abs ecu and everything to fit gotta do that tommorow, wish me luck!
Good luck!!
@@AndyManCam everything worked out well its working amazing :) thanks!
Glad to hear it! Congrats!
Hey mate whats the windshield you have on there?
Its an Ermax scree Brett. Looks good, but for me at 6‘4“ it’s very noisy. Wind directly to the ears!
I have done the same mistake but the colors on my yamaha r6 2002 are mixed so I went to attempts
Good stuff.
Happy shifting m8
Cheers dude.
Can the harness be used with other gear indicators. I have a Datatool DiGi that was given to me recently, but it's meant to be hard wired to the back of the dashboard. This would be so much easier!
I honestly couldn’t say, I’m afraid. Probably no reason why not, as long as you know the pin-out and rewire accordingly.
@@AndyManCam therein lies the issue. I doubt it would come with that info, and I'm too lazy to test it all to figure out what's what 😂
I'm heading to MCL on Friday, so I'll just see what's about there
Roger that! I‘d probably be the same!
Hi, do you how to reset the gear indicator due to incorrect programming?
There's a bit in the video somewhere wehre I reset it. That'S how! ;D
Andy Man Cam Thanks
Another great AndyManCam's gagrage video. I thought it was only Italian bikes that had mismatched/backwards wiring. I thought the Japanese were better than that?!
Nope, seems like the Japanese have confused some stuff too! Unless it's an italian sensor?...
what is the name of these thing at 3:45 ? the red thing
It's a 3M Scotchlok connector.
Is it me or did your mirrors change all on their own?
Ha! Well spotted! Yeah i switched those in the bit between fitting and testing!
Andy Man Cam will they be in a video?
Very nice job
Cheers Dean. Great little piece of kit.
Thanks for the tutorial :)
My pleasure Mickael. Thanks for watching.
thank you, thank you, thank you
Au contraire! Thank YOU!
It was very helpful thanks a lot
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Nicely done.
Thanks HR!
Nice MG in the back of the garage there. When I first saw it I wondered if it might be a Morgan.
As in a guten Morgan....
Just leaving now.
Haha! Very good! I'm really sad that it's not a Morgan now!
Top vid again 👍
Cheers mate!
Can you do this on any bike? I have a versys 650 2010
Yes I think so. Check out the Healtech website and they have a database of bikes that the devices work on.
@@AndyManCam yes thankyou i have found it, very helpful and great video man! Love your bike man🏍
Glad to hear it Alex. 👍🏻
Will this be the same for a fz6
Very good!!!
Many thanks Christian.
Hi bro, what about 5gear box 🤔
The indicator will only show as many gears as you have!
@@AndyManCam thx bro 🤙🍻
That is one loud fan, bejebus
First time it went off, I thought I'd unwittingly bought a secret moto-copter experiment and it was about to catapult me into the sky. Annoying thing is that it comes on a LOT in town. This bike is way hotter running than the Versys was. WHich in turn was way hotter than the FZS600 was. Next bike will be a Honda Furnace 1200.
Healtech instructions are poor. Check the wiring diagram for your motorcycle and use the single wire from the ECU to the ignition pickup coil. The other wire on the pickup coil is commom between other sensors like the TPS and WSS.
Healtech stated it was the GREY wire on my R6 when in fact it was the WHITE/RED wire needed.
I guess they’re chasing a moving target when the coloring changes between model years. Luckily you figured it out though
What uear r6 do you have? As il be attempting this soon, thanks
I must do this
doing 85 kph in a garage like a boss :)
TBH i was a little bit uncomfortable about doing it like that! I wanted to go out and do it on the road but it was too i icy!! I had visions of ending up parked in the back of that car!
I installed one of those and as I was looking at it and not paying attention to the road, I dumped the bike and slid for 100 meters and scrapped my leg completely off my body. Those bloody numbers are too small!
OUCH! That sucks mate. Very sorry to hear it.
Cleaver gadget so it works out the gear your in by rpm/mph without a need of position sensor on the gear leaver
Exactly what you said!
I own an FZ1, I grew up without idiot lights and still don't need them
The gear indicator was one idiot light that I was really happy to have.
I've worked on every car, SUV, truck and motorcycle I've ever owned since the 1960s and I work on just about everything else too. I was also a service technician working on literally hundreds of different types of commercial equipment before I became an engineer. That said, this installation seems like a PITA and not really worth the benefit. Thanks for the video. It convinced me to not bother with this device.
It really wasn't all that difficult! Sure, it wasn't plug and play, but it was just a couple of wires! Any self respecting bike tinkerer would see this as no problem.
Genial
Vielen Dank.
Is anyone here knows how to install gear indicator for kawasaki rs200 plssss..
Anyone? Somebody help the guy out! Sadly, I have no clue!
I had one of these fitted to my bike by a dealer but doesn’t work since it’s serviced. Just stays on a slow blinking 1 :(
Thats annoying. Sounds like your dealer has broken it!
Deautschlaaaaaaaaand!!
'TSCHLAAAAAND!
Andy Man Cam your english is very good. Besuch uns in Nürnberg 👍🏻
My english is WAY better than my german! No surprise considering I'm english though! :D
For settings from 1 to 5
It will only show the gears that you have. All automatically.
that looks pretty trick :-)
Cheers. I think red is my colour!
😁👍🏼🇩🇰
Every fuel injected bike has an ECU that knows what the RPM and the speed are. How difficult can it be to calculate the gear and display that in the instrument panel? Lazy bastards. I noticed Kawasaki *finally* put a gear indicator in the LCD display in the 2017 Versys.
I know right! Cost cutting is the only thing that's give crazier than political correctness lately!
Hiii
Hey!
Baby cable Lol
All the big cables were baby cables once... ;D
...or just simply buy tracer 900 :)
...or XSR900
This way works out WAY cheaper, trust me! Plus probably loads less black FZ1-Ns out there than Tracers! 😜
You're right. I said that, because I know you like tracers, from previous videos. And btw, your videos are awsome! Cheers from Slovenia. :)
Ha! You're not wrong there. Awesome bikes! Luckily I'm loving the FZ1 so all is good!
