As I understand it the m\/unit can then record speed data, correct?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can I use both a key ignition switch AND the bluetooth smartphone unlock to unlock the bike? Or will there be some sort of conflict?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>My turn signals are incandescent bulbs, not LED\u2026do I still need a diode between their signal and the speedometre LED lights (i.e. so I don&#8217;t get bleed from a right turn signal bulbs turning on the left turn signal bulbs?)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I&#8217;m wiring my handlebar clutch lever switch to the new &#8220;STAND&#8221; input on the m.unit, i.e. bike won&#8217;t start until clutch lever is pulled in (it&#8217;s a safety feature I think is worth it).
