9's or 0's

So you gas up and it (assuming you use it for range calcs) resets your trip meter? I (manually) do that every time, but I would be surprised to see a manufacturer take over the trip meter and insist it was done. Curious.

If you want to reset it yourself, you can either turn that functionality off, or use trip counter "A"

"It" automatically resets it? Is there two trip meters?

Mine has 2 trip meters - I always reset 'A' when I refuel, no option for auto reset though

i have to manualy turn the damn thing. so i set it up for 000.0 , and if i go too fast and miss it.....well there it goes round another time

Yeah mines got 2 trip meters as well. The only reason I asked imdying is because the Honda's dash is reasonably simple.

just stop at 999.9, that way if you go to far you're on 000.0 anyways, thought at least one other person would be rockin the 9's :meh:

So when filling up, I always click my trip odometer round to 999.9 instead of 000.0 as it seems to click over and line them up a lot nicer, so have at it, are you a 9'r, or a 0'r?

Have you ever considered that you might have OCD?

Up, that is a whole 161 metres down the road for me!!!

I can't afford to wait that long before my odo catches up with my fuel...
Besides i will be 161 metres short of fuel at the other end of the tank... that is a darn long walk with a 200kg bike!


I just turn the little knob around again if my numbers don't line up... much easier than running out of fuel









This post may not be serious

The bike reminded me this morning of the other thing it does... when you reach reserve, it changes the trip meter to litres consumed since that point. You can change back to the odo or trip meters, but 10 seconds later it changes back to the litres consumed; that and the big orange LED (which flashes after about 3 litres) keeps letting you know that now isn't a bad time to think about gassing up.
