Begin the MSU installation by finding a suitable location for the MSU box on your
motorcycle. The recommended location is in the fairing area or near the existing gauges, or
under the seat or near the rear of the bike. In either case, the unit should be aligned so that
the wires are extending out of the front or back of the MSU unit, not the side. Also insure
that there is a minimum amount of metal and/or body mass between the MSU and the
display. An excess of either may cause an intermittent radio signal.

Next, mount the wheel speed sensor by attaching the sensor bracket on the lower brake caliper
bolt.
This should be done on rear wheel only
. If your motorcycle has rear drum brake, or a
shaft drive, it is possible to mount the sensor on the front wheel, however, you may experience
speed and/or gear position fluctuations as a result. There are two brackets included with the SV
kit, chose the one that will allow the sensor to come within .200” (5.5mm) of the brake disc.
Some modification of either bracket may be required on your particular bike.
