Zitat von RugbyPad im Beitrag #1 Yes, you have 3 screen styles to choose from. The font size of the speed display differs on each one, depending on whether you want the rev counter visible or not. I choose the screen with the largest speed display and no rev counter. The analogue speedo is rubbish. It would be better if the analogue dial was a rev counter like on the XR. |

Much larger, you can elect to have the Nav screen dedicated to showing speed only ( large digits) or split the screen to also show other info such as tyre pressures , engine temp etc. And once pre- selected as “ views” you can switch between them on the fly using the toggle wheel on the left grip. Really nice functions. |

Ahhhh, thanks Boxerboy. Glad I got the dealer to find a Nav VI in their stock room now!

Thanks L2RKE, it does seem a dichotomy to have an LCD dash with an old school analogue tacho. I wanted to go for a TFT model, but just couldn't justify the extra outlay, just for that at present. I'm sure I will see one in my future...

Once you get used to the speedo it is fine. WhenI first got my RS I was wondering how I would read the important digits bit its second nature now to know the 30/40/50/60 needle position .

Zitat von andygriff im Beitrag #10 That's been my experience as well. Quick glance where the needle is, no longer have to read the numbers, I know their positions |

Zitat von RugbyPad im Beitrag #8 The other good thing about the Nav is that it also lets you know the prevailing speed limit, which is particularly useful when the A/B-road limits seem to flip at random between 50 and 60 I'm another user of the screen setting where the speed is displayed in large digits; I never look at the analogue speedo (can't see it!) and put up with no tachometer

Zitat von andygriff im Beitrag #10 I find that in a 30 limit a buzzy 2nd or a trundle in 3rd works (depending on hazards). For a 40 3rd is good and 4th for a 60. Sorted and the speedo is pretty much redundant except for occasional confirmation. And I'm the one behind in the test. Works for me, spot on. On track I didn't have time to hunt for the speedo needle number. Too many other things to focus on. |
