Title: 2008 update instrument cluster
Post by: badaboum on July 28, 2016, 06:25:35 PM
Hello I would like to know if all instrument clusters are compatible?

I have a 2008 model but I like the newer one due to color and led. Can I buy a 2010 or 2012 one and swap them?

Thanks

And let's be crazy what about the 2016 ZZR panel...

I can't see why not.. All the GTR instrument clusters are the same..

Comparing the 2, I don't think the ZZR one will fit..

Yes, I think the ZZR issue is the fact that there is no button to select the menu

For the GTR, don't you think that there will be display issue as the 2008 models don't have outside temp, eco mode etc...

As is said....most things are possible, but  is it really worth the aggravation, there might be electrical connector incompatability , and who knows what  that could lead  to, unless of course you are a bright spark  :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:

Oooh, they look classy. If they were a straight swap I'd be raiding the piggy bank!

I just bought my GTR after selling an 09 Harley Davidson Night Rod Special. There were businesses that specialised in changing H.D. LED colours for a small fee. I'll see if I can find them when I get a chance.

These guys mainly appear to do H.D.'s and I don't know what type of LED's Kawasaki use but I'm aware of a lot of sportbike owners who just soldered their own coloured LED's in. There are even a few YouTube tutorials . I'm sure there are a few more sites that advertise this but it's midnight here and I'm in need of some rest!

The mileage on the odometer will change to that of the replacement cluster.
