so far it seems quite accurate from what i can tell. each of the 2 times that i put gas in, it was showing 1/2 full and i put in about 1.8 or 1.7 gals of gas which is about 1/2 of the tank.
i have to say it's such a damn good feeling to know in 25% increments what's left in the tank...avoid pushing a close to 600lbs bike with my small 125lb frame ;-)

i forgot to mention that the programmable rpm limiter is actually a shift point indicator. it blinks on the rpm segment as well as the numeric readout (when you've clicked to that mode). basically, it renders this very expensive shift light useless ;-)

too bad i don't have a helmet cam handy so i can do some realtime vids while riding and going through the features.

i went out for a night time ride of 36 miles tonight to test out the gauge. one thing i'll note is that i had set the dimmer setting to "no auto dim". i think that it's really bright at night, could be distractingly bright. i suggest using the auto dim setting set to "on" which is about 35-40% reduction in brightness and just about perfect at night.

i've sent feedback to dakota digital along with the pics and videos. perhaps you'll see a couple on their site. good luck folks and enjoy a very easy but highly useful mod ;-)
