[gaujalauncher]

dont you know when to change gear then

yes i do when the rev needle jumps

Think on the 'earlier' shift lights they only come on when holding the revs high rather than when you get to the revs if you see what I mean

Does it light up on the cluster when starting

[gaujalauncher]

Does it light up on the cluster when starting ? Yes it does mate and when i rev the bollocks out of it it does not come on

On mine it depends on where you have the throttle. Light throttle at 1800rpm and it comes on. Foot to the floor and it wont come on. It also wont come on with foot off.

Though I dont like it it does remind me that I now have 6 gears.

Good point! That's number two on my list of potentially useful features of the Mk7. I do wish the list was longer.
