Acewell 2853 gauge

Just ordered one. Who has one and how do you like it? Any tricks and tips on wiring? There some features like fuel level and engine temp I'm not set up for at the moment. Any suggestion on how I can?

Your going to need sending units for both. Not to sure about the fuel level sending unit, I bought a tank lid with one in it. As for temp, all you need is a oil temp sending unit. I'm sure you could find on the same thread as the oil port above your points cover, assuming is a KZ1000. I'm not familiar with the other models.

Here is a link to the speedo Steve.

Looking at the functions I do not see a oil temp indicator just an oil pressure indicator which is propably what you have now.

I used one on my 650 dime city cycles provide a plug n play setup for the speedo

As for gas guage not sure didn't use it and the tacho required the inline resistor that is provided to properly pick up the tach.
