Put a Rodger McEwen gauge on my bike. Simple install. As long as it came off the same MY bike it should be plug and play. It is tight under there but take your time and it shouldn't be a problem. By the way those gauges are accurate +/- 5* in the range of 170* - 210*,after that accuracy falls way off. They're good to use as a reference regarding overall engine performance (what's normal for your bike), but don't count on it to be accurate.
When first installed mine was constantly reading over 300* while on the interstate, I got so panicked I called the manufacturer. That's when I learned of the accuracy range. I used another thermometer on one of those runs and learned the oil was around 260*. I like mine I just don't panic when it reads high.
