My and my little 32"
Ok...Alaska just got it's few shipments of the 14. I have a 32" inseam and I gotta tell you the fit was PERFECT. I gotta, gotta, gotta get one of these bikes.....how hard would it be to have the dealer install a digital speedo/tach before I quickly start accumulating miles?

Well, I would have GPS also but once I move to Vegas I know even a locked-mount GPS is candy for the crack heads...I am thinking I would like color optional backlighting and digital read outs.

Or, this is a little more traditional...
from Nordskog
Our new 2 5/8" Analog GPS Satellite Speedometer with integrated odometer, trip meter and high-speed recall uses the same patented technology as our famous marine GPS speedometers. It incorporates the Global Positioning System to display extremely accurate speeds without the use of cables or sending units from the transmission, resulting in accuracy regardless of tire size, wheel size, gear/axle ratio, sprocket size or transmission type. Therefore, it never needs to be calibrated!
Perfect for motorcycles, ATVs, quads, sand rails, hot rods, street rods.....in fact, any vehicle!!
Kit comes complete with speedometer, GPS receiver, external recall switch, mounting bracket, wiring and detailed instructions.

Dakota Digital and Electosport has some interesting products. I want an ambient temp guage, and a Digital speedo would be cool.

Yea, same in my truck...I had to buy an aftermarket mirror with ambient....it really helps me judge the actual riding conditions.
I am getting silly but image if you had a digital speedo/tach where a digital robotic girl would flash you when you hit certain speeds or rpm's....LOL

An accurate speedo on a Kawasaki? What a brilliant idea, I wonder why they never thought about that?
I just determined that my ZZR1200 actually has around 25,000 miles instead of the 28,000 showing on the odometer. I've known the speedo was about 10% but I guess I just hoped that didn't translate into higher odo readings. On my Yahama, 182.6 miles will translate exactly to 190 miles on the Kawasaki.
Oh well, at least I've been changing my oil, lubing my chain, and doing my valve adjustments AHEAD of schedule.
