Has anybody any clue if this mod would be just plug and play?? I like the idea of having trip meter on the bike.

I spoke with CFMoto end of 2013 regarding the 2014 650TR dash cluster retrofitting to the previous model.Quote:

Consequently this requires a change to the main wiring harness, which is a major change out, not just a simple sub harness change out as one would hope. While the dash is the same basic shape, and dimensions etc., the plugs used are different.

Maybe bikerdoc could help me to acquire one?
I can not really comment on the NK, but as I wrote, the change for the dash etc for the TR is not as simple as I'd hoped. While one can simply swap the dash on the TR, plugging it in and getting it to work is not so simple. One would need to change the main wiring harness, this is the full harness, that means a big job. EVERYTHING comes off the bike, EVERYTHING unplugged, swapped out... big job...
I have been taking this bike apart NK that is and that is not so big job.
well at least it don't feel to me as i also had to dismantle rear section when I covered it with decal.
but on NK that would be a big job indeed.
There is a possibility that, as speedo is made by KOSO then maybe the pin order is different to 2013 model. other option would be buy KOSO RX1n as it is same unit but not modified by CFMoto.. but will everything work.. thats another matter.. Attachment 15084
There are some cell-phone apps and some wireless cycling computers that might be able to do the job. Personally I'd like a gear selector indicator.

It does look like CFMoto did personalise speedo of some what.
Even lighting is little different.
Here is the link of kawasaki forum where they have installed some koso speedos to their bikes.

While front looks identical back of original Koso and CFMoto one is different. so connection places do look different, so original Koso will not just bolt on.
and prices of these units seems to be almost the same.
Straight swap is not so easy with these bikes.
Just wondering if anyone found out for sure if the 650nk cluster swap is not just straight forward. I've quickly compared service manual wiring diagrams from 2013 and 2014 with the upgraded cluster an pinouts at the cluster appear to be the same, have to check resistance and values of components to verify inputs to cluster yet. Has anyone successfully done this upgrade and the original speedo is so hard to see..
Worthwhile checking CF650 thread compilation
And specifically CF650TR instrument panel upgrade
