[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1349203, member: 3828"] Yeah, I've noticed mine displays a couple degrees too warm also. The main reason that I care is around this time of year when it gets down to [I]just above[/I] freezing. A week ago I went on a tag ride over into Vermont. When I left the house it was a sunny and balmy 42 degrees. By the time I hit the state line it had clouded over, and there were a few flakes in the air, but I wasn't worried because the temperature was still showing 39-40, so it wasn't sticking to the roads. By the time I climbed from the river valley, up past Okemo ski area to my first tag in Plymouth it was snowing hard and the temp had dropped down to 35 displayed. Knowing this was really about 33, and that I still had a bit more elevation to gain to get past Killington, I chickened out and headed back down hill before the unsalted wet roads froze over. By the way, with my heated jacket liner, heated gloves and grips all running I was perfectly warm and toasty the whole time. Just didn't cherish the idea of dropping the big pig in the snow. Here's my tag photo: Calvin Coolidge's gravesite (bet you didn't know he was a Vermonter) [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161203/a9e7424323fb4257ce0753f0bee81f11.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
