Gas & Temperature Gauges?
I have seen on many posts that some of you replace the Gas or Temperature gauges with other things like clock or volt meter.
I was wondering why? Don't you need to know how much gas your have or if Temp. start to change?
I am just curious.

When you disconnect the analog gas and temp guage, it appears on your screen digitally, much more accurate.

Options----
When both analog gauges are removed the info will show up on the center screen automatically. Then you can put 2 of what ever you want in the 2 holes. A larger digital clock, USB sockets, 12v socket, other gauges, ect.
Hope this answered your question,

Think ya beat me to the answer Joe.

Interesting! Now I'll have to figure out what I want to install. The Speedo and Tach could both be eliminated also.

Has anyone ever asked, or does anyone know why the duplication ? I mean if you take them out and they are in the digital display, then why not put something else useful there in the first place ? I mean, there must be a reason...I just wonder why ???

It's only the higher spec RT's (originally just the Ltd's? but now also the Specials?!) that get the analogue gauges, the std spec RT's hafta put up with just the digital gauges & block off plates filling the holes in the facia..... But it didn't take RT Ltd Riders all that long to realise that the analogue gas gauge wasn't all that accurate/reliable an indicator, so the search was on for a way to revert to the much more reliable & accurate digital gauge that the std spec Spyders already enjoyed! And lo & behold!!

I guess that is what is confusing me, if the base model has the digital gauges, then on the RTS and limited why didn't they add a 12v plug, or usb plug, or clock or something extra, instead of duplicating the digital gauges with inferior analog gauges....Inquiring minds want to know !

maybe more accurate, but certainly less legible, especially for those of us whose eyes have seen it all.

I have to respectfully disagree with you here, i think the digital stands out better.
