I'm a data nut; the more information I can see about my vehicle the better.

I've been holding off on buying the OEM voltmeter for this little puppy. The gear indicator would be great IMO; many times in corner entries I lose track of gears and I don't know if I just clicked into 2nd or 3rd. By the time I figure it out by playing with the clutch, I've lost momentum and the corner is no longer fun.

Also, when coming to a stoplight sometimes I coast in and then downshift through multiple gears to prepare for the green light. Most times I coast in from 5th gear but sometimes I lose track and coast in from 4th. A gear indicator would help me see if I just down clicked into 1st or 2nd.

These two scenarios require the gear indicator to show the gear while the clutch lever is pulled in... is that how this works? Or do you have to release the clutch lever before the gear is indicated?
