Re: LCD Dipstick

I thought about getting one before I heard all the bad reviews and was glad I opted for the analog. My main reason for going with the analog was even thought I'm a gadget guy and love that kind of stuff it's just way to easy to steal. Some punk just walking by could see it and think "hey that's neat" and take it in about 2 seconds. It wouldn't even set off your bike alarm if you had one.

Re: LCD Dipstick

Live and learn, live and learn.

Re: LCD Dipstick

I finally won on one choice.... I wanted the LCD, but hubby had some 'chrome cash' so I opted for the analog gauge.....I was happy I didn't have the $$ at the time or I would have wasted it for sure. Woo hoo for me.
