[QUOTE="Albervin, post: 128254, member: 586"] A friend has a NEW Prince that was fitted with an electronic speedo (PUKA)?. Lasted about 200 miles and permanently died. The suppliers were less than helpful so a mechanical unit is now fitted. A Scitsu will allow me to get a real sense of what the engine is doing. Old engines often sound like they are working hard when they are not. I discovered this when I attached an electronic tacho. to my Riley. I thought I was revving the head off but was only doing 4,000. I am going to fit a Scitsu to my Puch and vintage Maico to get a picture of what is happening and then I may retire it or leave it on the Puch. I may do the same on my Vincents just to see what is happening, They are not expensive, distracting or ugly. To say a GPS, tachometer or even a clock, is distracting is ludicrous as you only need a split second to look at them. As far as the GPS is concerned it is more about the audio than visual except for some complicated on/off ramps. [/QUOTE]
