Odd speedo reading.

Riding home from yesterday,I glanced down at the speedo and instead of a figure the readout was - - -.What does that mean?Off the clock?
I would just like to point out,I was on a private test track at the time.

I believe that the maximum that the speedo can read is 174mph, anything above that shows as "---".

Keefy, have you been a bad boy?
