What does " Only fir ECU data" mean? Is it a misspell "for"
Looking for a gear indicator for my 2015 R6 on amazon.
Do I have to flash the ECU or is its "plug and play"
 
Looks like the white plugs splice into a plug in the bike's wiring harness. As for the wording, who knows. Maybe it makes sense in the language it was translated from.
 
I think it's trying to say it is directly reporting "ECU" data, as opposed to you needing to install a wheel speed sensor maybe? Ad says plug and play but then it also comes with a pair of wire taps (but apparently so would a Healtech GIpro X-type G2). If it works and it doesn't fry anything than $35 is a great deal!
 
Yeah, I think it's saying that it relies on the ECU knowing what gear the bike is in via a stock gear position sensor, and reporting that info through the diagnostic connector that the device plugs into.

I've got a similar device for a bike that doesn't have ECU knowledge of the gear position. The diagnostic port on the bike only reports speed and RPM, so the device has to do some calculations to figure out what gear it is in. That takes about a second between gear shifts, so it's a noticeable delay. It also requires recalibration of the device if you make big changes to the sprockets.
