any cut to the harness is going to make the bike's electricals more prone to failure. could and most likely would be a very minute percentage more likely. i put everything together and it wasnt worth it to me. besides, im getting pretty good at judging gear by speed/rpm

That is very true, I won't deny that. If done properly, (I haven't seen the Acumen directions or harness yet so I can only assume) there shouldn't be any problems now or later. I don't plan on having to actually cut any wires, simply solder to some bare wire. I may not even get one, but it sure would be nice to have.

the other reason i was looking at them is that i was considering sending my gauge cluster away for an LED swap. but since that guy says he cant do the combo i wanted (all white w red needle) it would make no sense to tear the nose of the bike apart for a single mod
