You would have to get rid of the immobilizer first,$$$ as your stock gauges are part of the system.

Gauges? You don't need no sticking gauges.

OK, great information, now how do I remove/bypass the immobilizer?

well it lists for $725 from FIMDavesax36 said:
if it wasn't this expensive more of us would've ditched our immobilizers long ago and ran what ever gauges we wanted.

Next question, has anybody tried separating the immobilizer electronics inside the gauge cluster from the gauge/dash cluster and tucking them away somewhere? Is it possible?
hmmmmmmmm, Elmer
Sound feasible, like it should work, but for me "historically" bright ideas sometimes end up in disaster.

·I think that's $725AU (FIM is from downunder) so that's "only" about $550US...Industrial_Grrrl said:

except it was listed "USD$725". Check for yourself. Wishful thinking it's $550DrunkenMonkey said:

what's a good idea?
motogadget told me you have to keep the stock gauges on the later ones if you want to use theirs... same with
any of them... dakota digital makes some nice billet alum ones.
times like this i am glad i have an earlier one. add the 550 (shipping and duties) for the motogadget and plus another 200 for adapers and fabrication and you are looking at nearly 1500 to change gauges.. that is 10% percent of buying a new bike..... .. you got to really be sure of it..

I believe it's possible, but I won't be attempting it until January. I'm rebuilding a customer's 2003 Monster that was wrecked and the stock gauge cluster was badly damaged...BUT, the bike still ran (so the immobilizer worked). I'm going to try and fish out the circuitry involved, and seal it up in it's own little box and stuff it under the tank.
Pics, details, etc... in due time.

Keep me posted on that. I was planning on doing the same thing but I'm a little worried about ripping apart my gauges and screwing up the electronics. I' m stuck in Icrap (iraq) until Sept. so I have the luxury of waiting until you're done with your project to see if it works or not. Please keep me posted.
