I have used a Honda Blackbird with the Koso. It is reading (although needs some adjustments made). Any motorbike (not tiny scooter) should provide you with a good small gauge.

Yeah I've read that somewhere but wouldn't a bike sender not reach the bottom of the tank?

I used a sierra one from lolocost but it does require some adjustment

Really struggling now.

Can't find on anywhere which states the correct ohm. If i use a bike sender, surely it won't reach the bottom of the tank.

Is there anywhere which sells universial ones?

As far as I know, they are either 100ohm or 510 ohmI have Koso gauges and I am using a CBR1100 Super Blackbird sender. It needed some adjustment (careful bending) but now works wonderfully (on 100ohm).

Just had a look at mine - you are right in that the settings can be adjusted to allow either the 100ohm or 510ohm senders to be used. Instructions are on page 31 on how to change it
