ÆON Meter settings

ÆON is the companion app for the ÆON unit, the instrument that replaces your motorcycle's original gauge cluster.

One unit, four families of motorcycle. Depending on the firmware version, the ÆON talks to your machine's ECU or reads the harness signals directly.

COMPATIBILITY

- BMW K Series — K1, K75, K100, K1100 (1982-1997), K1200 (1997-2005) and first-generation four-valve R Series twins, 850 to 1200 cc (1993-2006). Fits in place of the original cluster.

CONNECTION

The app connects to the unit over Bluetooth Low Energy. Once paired, it transfers your settings into memory and puts the relays and the trip within reach from your phone.

WIRING GUIDES

The installation guides are built into the app, with interactive diagrams: touch a connector cavity to see its wire and what it does. They work offline, out in the garage, in English and French.

ÆON changes how you read your motorcycle: the instrumentation becomes legible, configurable and open to updates, without touching the original harness.
