I never thought they were useful until I bought a bike with one. Certain bikes just feel like they need an extra gear. My FJR was like that (still don't know why they haven't gone to a 6 speed after 13 years) and so was my KLR. I don't find myself hunting for 6th on my CB for some reason, but 4th and 5th are so closely spaced, and indicator would be handy.
