Default recon how good is it.

Hey coyotechaser, could you fill me in a little more info on that 8 function bike deal?
ive really been looking for a way to track mph, or even hours or miles. makes oil changes easier.
Right now I just changer hers when I Change my rubicon. but having a little gadjit like that to pout on my wifes recon would be cool.

TIC- You can mount a bike speedo on an atv's handlebars. They are usually around $20.00. I got a couple for $8.00 each when a local store went under. You would also need extra wire (to extend length), larger magnet (I got one out of the bottom of an old shower curtain. flat & round), and some silicone to mount magnet on inside of front rim. Once you have everything entered correctly, it worked great. (I sold my Recon.) Speedo mph, average speed, time, trip distance, ODO (might erase when changing the battery), trip time. I can't remember all the functions right now and the owners manual is out in the garage. Make sure the speedo displays higher speeds.

My average speed was around 10 or 12mph. Top speed was 47 mph. I figured out my mpg. All for $8.00.

TIC- My author icon has a blurry pic of the speedo that I had on my Recon. The number display was big enough to see without a problem while driving. The one I had didn't have a back light. Others might.

Oops! I changed my author icon.
