Just got one. The cable is a mile long. I wanted to cut it but was advised not to. So...I folded the wire a few times and put it in some expandable sleeving. For the moment, I have the sender behind the gauges, stuck to my bars (it's magnetic)
I'll end up moving it to a more discreet location. I just had to see how well it works. It's been a week and about 150 miles. It is awesome. I do not have it wired for the "hot start" and it acquires the signal quickly enough that I won't make that connection. The needle is rock solid and they light up beautifully at night. I couldn't be more satisfied.
