【OPMID】OP Multimeter Review
All in One Instrument Gauge for the Monkey
About quality and texture: I am happy with the quality of the multimeter from Opmid. The housing is made from all plastic with a gloss finished screen. The display is all digital just like the OEM Honda meter. About the feeling of use: This instrument gauge has every thing you could possibly want to display on your Monkey and I much prefer the look of the digital tachometer added to the displayed. Products to buy together: A SP Takegawa oil temperature guage and drain bolt would also be desirable to purchase alongside the multimeter so you can display the engine oil temperature from not just the OEM Honda sensor on the cylinder but also from the crankcase area. Difficulty of installation: The process to install takes about 2 hours to install and setup. Remove the headlight and OEM Honda meter then position the temperature wire and tachometer wire. Install the meter bracket followed by the meter and connect up all the wiring to the meter. Now follow the instructions on how to setup the meter. A little difficult to do. Cost performance and comparison with other products: Good costing as you are getting an all in one instrument gauge that is able to display everything you could want on the Monkey but the price is high as compared to the previous tachometer I was using from SP Takegawa that did a fantastic job but is missing a few features. About shipping and packaging: Sea frieght is my preferred method of shipping due to the lower cost and it is fantastic that it has returned as an option once again so I can put my money toward parts and not high shipping costs. Webike kept me updated on the status of my order up to when it shipped. The parcel arrived within the expected date range and was well packaged with no chance of the part being damaged. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing: Like I have already said this is an all in one instrument gauge but if you have unlimited funds then you will want to purchase the super multi TFT meter from SP Takegawa that has a coloured digital display.

One of the best upgrades available for the CT125
About quality and texture, I can confirm that the quality is great and that the material used is ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic with a matte black finish for the housing and and a monochrome LED screen for the display. About the feeling of use, One of the best upgrades available for the CT125. The larger and brighter display was the main reason for purchasing but this multimeter offers so much more. Products to buy together, The center meter bracket from OPMID would be ideal to also add to your cart to position the multimeter where it looks best. Difficulty of installation, I can say the fitment of the multimeter for my installation was average due to the disassembly required to access all the connections but the YouTube OPMID channel made the process as easy as possible. Cost performance and comparison with other products, The pricing of this product is great. You receive well made and great features multimeter that is cheaper then what is available from SP Takegawa and the all black really suits the CT125. About shipping and packaging, My order was shipped within 24 hours of the product being in stock and I received a few emails advising me of the status up until the order was dispatched. The order arrived within the estimated date range and was extremely well packaged. I found the link supplied to track my order very useful while I was waiting for the order to land in the country. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, I have no concerns or cautions when purchasing from Webike. I cannot recommend Webike enough for the majority of your biking needs. They not only sell aftermarket parts and bike gear but also OEM parts for your repairs and servicing needs. View detail
Excellent as Multimeter
Good product with good features for the price.
Installation is easy since it is Couplet-on, but it takes more skill to remove the body covers.
The arrangement and design of each piece of information is good, and the speedometer and Tachometer, which are the most visible, are easy to read anyway. If I had a wish, it would be better if the numbers were not covered by the Gauge of the Tachometer.
When used in deFault, ChicaChica glows here and there, which is annoying, but the various warning indications can be changed to your liking in the settings.
It is also good that Odometer can be taken over by default when exchanging from NORMAL.
Normal meter speed display is quite Happy." （The good thing is that the speed error can be eliminated if the detailed settings are made accurately (+ about 5 km/h).

It is for 55, but it is fully compatible with 65.
The ManufacturerSite guide was not yet available for the 65, but there was additional information that the Oil Temperature Meter functionality alone was not compatible, so I looked at that and purchased the product.
The instruction manual does not indicate the 65-compatible sensor, so it is better to refer to YouTube or other sources.
As for the GEARPosition, the manufacturer's description says not to rely on it too much... but I see no problem with that. It is not a problem at all. It is acceptable that the display is slightly delayed from the operation. However, it would be good if the GEAR just before stopping could be displayed in keep, since it is only displayed while driving.
If I had to say something, I would say that the Tachometer Gauge is a little hard to see where it is covered by the numbers, and the display is almost invisible in sunny days due to reflection caused by the material of the panel surface and the angle at which it is mounted. I would like to see that in the Included Parts:section.

Not visible at all near noon.
OpMid official says that development for JB03 is delayed.
Check the diversion method for JB02 and install.
The installation was completed without any problems.
(However, oil temperature cannot be displayed as officially explained.)
Adjust menu looks complicated and you'll get used to it.
It's easier than PRESSte's Game configurations (LOL).
The Shift point's arbitrary rpm setting is also fun, as is the GEAR ratio and the
Tire front and rear O.D. input, etc. required, all from OpMid.
SettingSeat for JB03 is available for public use.
Just type it in as it is.
ShiftIndicator also responds well and has no problems at all.
One drawback is that, as is the case with Watches, when the full flat surface of the screen is directly above the sun, the screen glows bright white and nothing can be seen.
With Watch, you can check it by tilting your arm, but with Meter, you have to change your riding position violently to see it. Midsummer lunchtime Two is.... LOL!
Also, the characteristics of Mini bike? As a result
ShiftTiming is ChicaChica whether Tachometer is attached or not.
It may shine, but in the end, it has to be connected at full throttle due to its ineffectiveness.
I gradually stop seeing Meter. LOL!
(I wonder if it's just me …)

Works great on JB03 Honda Monkey 5 speed, but... no engine temperature
Installation was pretty straight forward, just followed the Youtube video by Opmid for the 4 speed Monkey. The JB03 Monkdey 125 has a different temperature sensor so the connectors for this on the Opmid harness was not used. The most annoying part of the harness install was connecting the clutch switch signal wire to the starter relay. To make it easy I removed the battery and battery box/tray to get access to the starter relay. I used the following figures to configure the gear ratio on the Opmid multimeter: 5.2 - 1st gear: 2.846 5.3 - 2nd gear: 1.777 5.4 - 3rd gear: 1.315 5.5 - 4th gear: 1.034 5.6 - 5th gear: 0.843 5.7 - 6th gear: none This worked a charm, every gear up and down while riding, the gear indicator showed the correct gear. Sometimes it gets confused when your revs are low and you change gears. The display is great, bright, easy to read in any light condition. I also purchased the matte non-reflective protective film and it helped with reducing glare. I am very happy with this Opmid multimeter, it's head and shoulders better than the stock one. Now to the "but"... no engine temperature. I'm still working out which option to take. View detail
