Why bother - a lot of the TRE's out there also have a gear indicator built in depending on where you get the TRE.

An old gear ind kit I had on my '01 had a two way switch attached to the shifter and you wired it to the neutral light. You start out in neutral and the unit could count up or down... Sometimes it would mess up and you had to go to neutral to reset it.

I did it last year, but I spent closer to 50 including the marine grade plug, relay, and fuse block. The system powers off when the bike is off so I dont kill my battery
