Finally... a compass!
My scooter came with a neat digital gauge system which included a thermometer. This is a ridiculous idea in my opinion for several reasons. First, it is widely inaccurate, especially when it is hot, but then again I ride it quite a bit more when it is hot than when it is cold, and it isn't that cold that often here in California. Second, it's on a damned scooter! If it's hot outside, I already know it! If it's cold outside, I already know it! It's not like I am sealed in a car with no particular reference to the outside temperature!
I have always felt that it would have been much better to install an electronic compass in it's place. I think this would be much more useful information, on a much more regular basis, since the thermometer is useful once per ride, maybe.
:) So now my scooter has a compass! I am happy. :p
This was also 3 bucks at the automotive store.
