    Older bikes used the transmission for the speedometer, newer ones tend to use the front wheel.

    That's the opposite on all my bikes. The old one's have sensor on front wheel and the new one's have it off the tranny.

    Actually, in the past 8 years I've had State Farm, I've never seen an increase in rates for the 3 20+ speeding tickets I have received (2 car 1 bike).

    You must be in the special club that I'm in. There's some special list you get on if they don't consider you a high risk driver. Then they don't pull your driving record on a regular basis. They haven't pulled my record since 1999.

    Holy shit! We have S.F. as well and we would have been dropped if either of us had that many tickets.

    That's gotta be it. I know our record hasn't been pulled in several years.

    Yeah, about 3 yrs ago I got a reckless, then 19mph over, then another 19mph over within 3 months. Literally 12 points before plea. I called state farm to ask and she told me they don't pull my record, so don't worry.

    Re: Speedo Healer

    I have the speedo healer on my bike . My speedo was reading 15mph faster than actual (-2, +6). It is corrected now, but i have never checked whether or not my odometer is accurate.

    My tachometer and speedometer readings tell me what gear the bike is in (while in motion of course). I am not fortunate to have one of those bikes that shipped with a gear indicator.....

    Neither am I. I know that in 5th gear at 75 mph my bike will sound and feel like "this".

    Hence my serious question of who really uses their speedometer anyway. Although I admit it is a bit weird riding without one, which I did for about a month on the Drz.

    Did you still want that Vapor, I couldn't get it to do what I wanted it to do on the ninja so I am going to get it back to Patrick.

    Sure. What kind of water temperature sensor did it come with? Was is the one that needed to be tapped into the coolant lines or the type that had a little sensor ring that got put over the threads for the OEM temperature sensor?

    I'll probably be driving down to Springs on Friday. I can swing by your place on the way out/back if you are around.
