I finally sat down and read carefully the owner's manual instructions on operation of the Husaberg/ktm electronic speedometer. I hate reading these type of instructions like programming a VCR or setting a hand wrist watch display........but I need to learn what the stock unit can do because I ride the Fe450e in an enduro next week and I don't have the time or money to install a full enduro computer. Turns out I won't need one, well at least untill I have cash to afford one as the Stock unit has two chronographs/stop watch functions and two trip meters incluidng TR2 which is easiliy resetable......so with the Husaberg speedo, it's read out of MPH, the clock, chronograph, resetable trip miles and my roll chart and my back up wrist watch.......I have all I need to do my timekeeping for the event.
Bottom line that stock unit is easy to use and I'm happy with it, easy to scroll thru the functions, reset and use them for enduro timekeeping. The only better thing an enduro computer would do is display all the functions together, rather then having to reach down and scroll thru them and the enduro computers have various pace alarms too which is like cheating having an alrms that tell you to go faster or slower. For the few enduros each year I run, the stock unit and my roll chart are just fine and dandy. :clock: :thumbright:
