Description of Gearingo Gear Indicator

An electro-mechanical device in your bike's crankcase senses the position of the gear shifter and sends the information to the ECM. The Gearingo obtains the gear information from the motorcycle's electronic control module (ECM) and displays it on a bright red LED display.

Many other indicators, like the GIPRO, use the tachometer and speedometer signals to estimate the gear, and may require constant tinkering to make them work, even under optimal conditions. These other indicators do not work when skipping gears, coasting, or stopped.

The Gearingo digital gear indicator always displays the correct gear without any delay because the gear information comes from a sensor.
