A dealer tried to fit a datatool to my 6 and had real trouble, but on sending back to datatool they had TWO knackered units. The only advantage I can see with a Acumen is that you can get a pre wired loom, downsides with it though is the display is smaller than the datatool. I would go with the datatool.

I thought the only difference was that it's blue (goes with my dashboard lights). Still big enough to see what gear you're in. I only use to make sure i'm in 2nd for attempting feeble wheelies and 6th. I got the datatool revlight as well (£40 each from busters), well worth it.

I would have said "Digi- no prob" spot on since i did mine a year and half ago, it's been great. " BUT " after doing my mates last week ( wired up exactly the same ) we had a nitemare, you may have read the thread "Help Needed" last week, where we lost the Neutral light and had trouble calibrating it .... It may be a faulty unit ???? who knows, need to get hold of my mate today and see how he's got on. By the way ... i did'nt get any help, so i guess nobody has encountered any sort of problem like this before I might be inclined to say go with the Acumen

I am quite taken by the Acumen DG8, and if I buy it will definately get the plug and play harness. I must admit it does seem steep at £30 for the harness though. Big_Deezul have you got the Acumen fitted to your bike? If so any chance of a picture?

So I reckon on the Acumen colours its going to have to be a red one to blend in. Although I think the blue looks pretty neat.
