Nope, not something stupid! :angry2: I've got an 06 that's got the 17.0 mpg issue. :glare: There's a recall on it. It's your choice. New odo and no more 17 mpg, or use the long division math thingy, calculator..yada yada and no new odo. If it's the 07, sounds like they took the returned 06's and put em on the 07. :blink:I've had this bike for less than a week so I'm hoping that this is some "feature" that I haven't figured out yet... The instantaneous fuel consumption display seems to be stuck on 17.0 MPG no matter what speed or gear. It does show --.- when stopped, but as soon as you hit the speed where it starts reading, it goes right back to 17.0.
Please tell me this is something stupid
It's no big deal. It just means that the previous owner decide that knowing the instantaneous mileage was not worth having to accept everything that goes with replacing the gauge cluster. I'm another '06 owner who doesn't know his instantaneous mileage.Nope, not something stupid! :angry2: I've got an 06 that's got the 17.0 mpg issue. :glare: There's a recall on it. It's your choice.

nope doesn't affect the avg reading, only twisting the throttle and a lot of city driving affect that. To me it's not worth it. Odo gets reset, when you trade it for a new one the dealer looks at you cross eyed. Filler up, 5 gallons goes into 222 on the trip meter how many times? More than my truck, that's for sure and a lot more fun while driving it! BTW,,,,,it is an 06 right?Hey all, thanks for the quick reply. I guess my search-fu is not so good
I'm assuming that this doesn't affect the avg reading because it's showing higher than 17? Maybe I'll just wait until the end of the season to get it fixed (if at all).
Yes, it's an '06. Sorry, I was going to mention that but I guess my memory isn't any longer than a goldfish'snope doesn't affect the avg reading, only twisting the throttle and a lot of city driving affect that.

Do you mean to tell me this forum has a "search" function? Really ???
Apparently you have never used the search function or you'd know that it won't allow for 3 letter searches.
Breath buddy, breath. Maybe if you spent a little more time riding your bike rather than talking about it, the occasional dupe wouldn't be so hard on you.
