no tach[], ahh to hell with it i never have used them before any way
I have never had a Tacho on any dirt bike I have had in the past so I put it in the nice but not necessary basket.

I have removed a lot of things I deem not essential.
Clutch switch, stand switch, rear brake light switch, chain guard, carry rack, left mirror, rear fender extention stuff, speedo cable are all gone.
And no doubt more to come.

exatly my point with the tach, you go by the way the engine is talking to you, not by what a silly little needle says, thats why i think it would be more difficult to drive a manual transmission car, less feel

Only to get to the dirt.
Plus, on the road you are never going to use only the rear brake.
Front brake light switch is still connected.

So seeing as the GPS is made for motorcycles I assume it's waterproof?

Cheers

Yes it is. And very robust.
Comes with all sorts of bits. 2 cradles. 1 for the bike and 1 for the car.
Can also be used as a hand held.

It also has a handle bar mount but I went for a more sercure method.
Check it out.

And yes it's a bit pricey.
It has just been released so I'm sure I paid too much.
Give it 6 months and it's price will fall.
My problem is I'm not a patient man.
