Install is plug and play. Calibration takes some math and or a rear stand.

Well I have a stand and I used to be good at math in highschool and college so I am sure I can figure it out.

it's stupid easy to install... just find the plug for your spedo coming out of your trany.


as for calibrating... I used my GPS so I could get it spot on. if you have no gas gauge it's more important you get this right as even 1% off adds up over a full tank and you may be caught off guard running low on fuel.

This may be a stupid question but when you are replacing your chain do you have to replace both sprockets with it.

As a general practice, YES. Truth, use your own judgment. If all the teeth on both or either sprockets are good, Then they are good. Just make sure the teeth are of equal pitch on both sides, equal hight and nice and blunt tips.

If you changing the chain size then always yes.

As long as you have someone around that can find the plug for the speedo for you...
