Default Group Buy: Koso RX-2 Digital Gauge

Hi everyone,

I've been looking at aftermarket gauges recently as I need one for a project bike next year.

Koso gauges really caught my attention but the nice ones are very pricey.
http://www.kosonorthamerica.com/

Vapor gauges are another cheaper alternative.

I've been in contact with KOSO lately and I can get them at a wicked price.

The only problem is that I can only get this one model. Their top of the line RX-2 gauge.

The Canadian LIST PRICE (on Kosonorthamerica) is $474.95. When all said on done on, I'm guessing it would come to about $550.

Now, I can probably get this specific model for about $350 (tax in. everything except shipping cost to you).

Anyone interested?

================
I will be buying one either way so how many people joins doesn't really matter to me. I just thought i might share this deal with everyone. This is not a scam. those that know me, i would never do anything like that.

I really don't have the time or interest to organizing something like this but since I'm buying one anyways..... what the heck.

if there's interest I will do everything I can to make sure the transaction is safe for both sides. more details to come.

I kinda wanted one of these a while back but the thing stopping me is the installation. Is it gonna be plug and play or would u have to rip all the factory harnesses apart and route in the new ones?

yes, it won't be plug and play.

These kits use new magnetic speedometer pickups on the wheel.
it taps into the ignition wire for tachometer.
and a screw in temperature sensor in the thermostat housing.

I believe you have to tap into it for turn signals, hi-low beam, gas gauge, and a couple other things.

I don't know the details yet but I plan on spend the winter installing it.

I bought a bike with no gauges so this is perfect for me.

would be a nice upgrade for older bikes with bulky gauges. or for those building a naked/SF.
