Somebody added an amp meter to my bike which I love. It simply shows if the battery is charging or discharging, and how much, or simply neutral.
You have to wire all the voltage through the meter, but they are inexpensive. Dodge used to put them on all cars and trucks up to the mid 70s. They were problematic there because all the electrical load had to run up under the dash and cars started getting to many electrical gizmos for the wiring and connectors to handle. A motorcycle is no problem though.
