Is swapping gauges possible?

[xskiervh]

Is it possible to put a 1098 gauge/speedometer on a m696? What, how, or why wouldn't this work, besides mounting obviously?

[Raux]

from what i know... you would need

1098 motor, wiring, ecu

Disable the immobilizer in the ECU. Then use any gauge cluster you want. At least I think that's right.

[Raux]

no one can disable the 696 ecu's yet. well unless you can find a rexxer equiped shop. supposedly that system can modify the computer. but then you have the wiring issue. the gauges use different connectors. and i'm sure there are tons of other details that have to be hashed out.

Good to know raux, thanks

Ok cool, thanks for the replies was just curious how easy or hard that may be, probably beyond my mechanical or electrical skills based on those answers.

The easiest way to do it would probably be to tear your stock cluster apart and then hide the immobilizer somewhere.

Then take whatever cluster you want to use and wire up the necessary sensors to it.

I'm sure that's a hell of a lot easier said than done though.

Is it possible to switch older clusters?  Like I have a 07' 695 and I wanted to get the clutster from like the S4R that has the white strips on the gauges.  Or is it possible to change to an older superbike cluster, like pre 1098?
