      As the title says;

      IS THERE A WAY TO REPLACE GT650R 2006 SPEEDOMETER DASHBOARD WITH UNIVERSAL ONES.

      I was surfing facebook group pages and saw a guy there that managed to change the dashboard to fully digital.
      I asked him on the comments but didnt manage to get any response, anyways if that is possible, what would be the wiring look like for it?

      Or is there anyone who has the wiring diagram for it?

      At the moment there is no direct replacement for it due to:

      • Hyosung’s wiring is set up for the OEM dash which even has the speed reading , temp reading and fuel level
      • The plastic cover that surrounds the fairings and dashboard was designed for it

      So you will be forced to do some custom wiring work and maybe use the old plastic cowling to make a new fibreglass version for whatever new dash we use

      The uiversal digital ones have few issues that they most likely used

      • Inaccurate sensor readings  (if your bike is hotter and the dash says its cool, you may get false readings without knowing the engine is overheating)
      • Messy electronic wiring work, so you would need to be a wizard but it is possible
      • It doesn’t last long   (China made 99% of them)
      • Not “true” waterproof  (it might stop some rain, but water eventually finds its way in to them 😢)

      If you really want a “high quality” unit , go to KOSO USA  here https://kosonorthamerica.com/
      Email them for your nearest dealer that’s selling them.

      Avoid “koso” stuff on ebay as they can be fakes most of them, the chinese copy too much.

      Wiring = There should be a service manual in the forums  (Books section) and study the wiring diagram of the 650 carby GTR models   = Ignore Naked & GV as they use different harnesses.

      Remember, there is no guarantee the KOSO unit will be as accurate as the Korea unit but excercise caution if there is no way to calibrate the dash unit, but ask KOSO first.

      So there was a guy who did a swap to an aftermarket digital dash with success.  The only problem I see with it is you will no longer get any fault codes.

      That’s also another bummer for us EFi owners as they make majority of existing Hyosungs now

      Good shout there!
