Thinking of a new gadget...

Not me..that's for sure. If something on mine were failing then I would find out when the bike quit.

True story....on yesterdays FJR ride. The gauges have a menu of 9 things you toggle thru you can see. I think trip A, Trip B and odometer are on my first page (information I use most). Second page is range left to empty, current mpg and average mpg. On the third page I think I have coolant temp, and ambient air temp and something else (things I'm least to think or worry about).

So yesterday I'm riding along and decided to check the ambient air temp. So I toggle to that page and see it's 35 degrees or whatever. So I look up and see the coolant temp..something I never look at. It doesn't say 1 number..it's scrolling thru numbers 141...158...163..157..172..161...148 etc. Not in a progressive order, but rather random like. About every one hundred yards it seems to change. I think to myself... that doesn't seem right. Seems to me it would get to a certain temp and stay there unless you slow down or stop or go real fast (more or less air = hotter or cooler right?) so rather than worry about it for one second longer, I just flipped off that page back to my main page, and continued on my ride. Rode it 75 miles this morning and never looked at it once, and never worried about it. Warning gauges are for worriers lol.

..I like your sense of humor
