Hi all,
I thought it would be interesting to show you the project I worked on in the last months.It started as a gear indicator for myself but then some people showed interest so I made a couple modules.
The module is a plug and play gear indicator for kawasaki bikes. It communicate with the ecu to know which gear is engaged. Like the gipro's the clutch need to be release to have the good reading because the ecu calculate the current gear with the engine rpm and speed. For the installation, the only thing to do is plug the module connector in the bike diagnostic connector.
I implemented a "manual mode" which learn by itself the gear ratios for those who change sprocket or tire size.
Couple pictures / videos :
First started with test on prototype board :
Then, made a first pcb for development :

To end up with a final board :
And the module packaged / sealed :
And finally, a video to show the implemented functions :

Let me know what you guys think !!
