I'm not sure what you're asking here. Do you want someone to build one and sell it to you, or are you asking for info on how to build one yourself?

If it's info you're after, I'm sure you've already seen John Bates' schematic in the wiki thread? (http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=15563.msg155825#msg155825)

Yeah , i would like one already built and ready to install , just a price for now and someone to tell me ... yes this is hard to install or no this is simple to install ...
Thanks

OK, that makes perfect sense.

If you had a pre-assembled board and the replacement gear selection cable, you could install the gear indicator in about 15 minutes. The biggest challenge is removing the sprocket cover! 

I have never seen these for sale on the site. I think ben2go once talked about offering them for sale, but I don't think he ever got to a finished product (maybe send him a PM?). It takes time to machine out a mounting bracket and solder together the circuit, and the small profit potential does not seem to justify the time investment.

Anyways, good luck. I hope someone can help you out!  

i've seen these for sale on various websites for between 90 and 100$.  motosport carries one that will fit any gs-f.  i don't know about the gs-e models however

You're gonna need a 6 position 6 wire capstan that went the way of the dodo in 95 on a GS. They went to a 6 position 1 wire then a 1 position 1 wire thing ...

Oh wait a min ... I may be thinking GR, GS always has a 6 position 1 wire, then went to 1 position in 96 sorry ... you need a GR one ... I ahve one on my GS, heck I could get its dash out and see what needs done to the dash unit to get it to work ... but it will cost ya ...
Cool.

6 position 6 wire capstans are not easy to come by ... GR is a 5 speed ... You may have to source a GSXR/katana one ... 600's and 750's only, 1100's were 5 speeds. Ooooo maybe the capstan is the same, 1 wire is unused ... dunno ... maybe the 5 speed ones are OK.
Cool.
