Odd speedo reading.

KeefyB · 28-Aug-2006, 06:36

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.

Its the traction control kicking in when your spining your rear wheel up

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

Keefy, have you been a bad boy?

if you were doing over 174mph your looking in the wrong place
