My reserve light with the bars are on now. Not sure what changed since I didnt change anything...

 

Ok bump again please. Bro ive been trying to perfect this task in my mind first for months before spending a dime on the f4i gauge swap. So everything suddenly began working as if it were back on an f4i? I'd like to ask for a vid but I suppose thats just being greedy. Would you happen to have pics of the setup done and working properly on your f4? ESPECIALLY the fuel level indicator bars (meanwhile my fingers will be crossed in hopes that its doable)

I suppose the goal for me is retro my f4 with modern style and full function in mind
I guess if this doesnt pull through I'll be on the mission to throw a chinese koso rep at her

 

Whats Wrong with koso gauges?

You wont be able to use the fuel level indicator only the fuel low light, Now it is most likely doable but you run into issues of having to use an f4i tank and fuel pump if you use the f4i tank than you will most likely need to use the f4i airbox and I dont know if the airbox can even be used with carbs.

 

sorry for such a late response CJ; honestly i dont have a single problem with koso... the only problem is (and you guys will hear/see me say this alot), is that this is my last year in hawaii, i need to be back riding in that beautiful atmosphere before i leave. ive cut alot of corners and took cheaper routes for certain parts of the build mainly just to hold me down until i get to AZ. Besides, a good ol' cheap chinese koso knockoff would be a great thing to review and test, since we have so many questions about it with so few answers (i wont mind being the ginuea pig )

 

I love my Koso gauges, they work flawlessly. Even setup and install was a sinch, but I've been eyeing a data logger and want to sell my Koso gauges.

 

Oh yea considering youve got a street-track-star a logger would be a beautiful addition . Let me know if you decide to sell the koso cheaper than a chinese knock lol. If possible, (even though im sure there is one), hopefully you could post a vid with your personal review of the logger. At the moment i'd just rather trust opinions of the people who share this forum with me.

 

I can confirm for you that the f4i reserve light works on the f4 , but
yeah there's no actual fuel level displayed. It reads full until you
hit the reserve level of the f4 sensor. Once you hit that it starts to
blink. No FI light, you need a temp. sender from a 98-99 900rr for
that to read correctly and it's plug n play. The wire schematics
I found for f4i to f4 were spot on but there are two black and brown
wires to connect, one is black with a brown stripe, the other
brown with a black stripe. It would be easy to get these two
confused cause one is for the reserve light and the other
goes to the ignition. Aside from that it's an easy swap!

 

CJ, have you sold your koso gauges yet. I see someone else may be interested in purchasing these gauges also. If it's no problem, keep me in mind when selling it. PM me if you still want to sell.

 

Yea we shall see, I need to finish what I have to do now and see if its in the cards to get the data logger. But I will, Just look out for a post in the for sale section in a few months.
