Maybe that's because a lot of we Brits believe in the individual being responsible enough to carry out pre-ride checks, so we don't see the need for cut-out switches, or lights you can't turn off either. Just saying.

             A lot of US illiterate Americans feel that way also. We, too, don't like lights we can't turn off when we want them off or side stands that kill our engines at random times. It's our safety-nanny, over-reaching government that does that, not the riders.

and we still have our guns!

Some of us even pay attention, and use common sense all by ourselves!

Not so loud.

 Some of our bosses think we possess some sort of super hero power.

I wouldn't worry about it too much - those fuck wit Australians are much worse with the insults...

I think the best idea is a tach. Does anyone have ideas on one that is not too expensive as I want to install one on my 2015 military ? My Alfa Romeo only has one instrument directly in front of the driver and that is a tach. Alfa engines produce most power above 4000 rpm so it is critical to keep revs. up. The point is a tach. is much more important than a speedo.

A speedo is required to keep from getting expensive speeding tickets. a Tach is unnecessary for riders with normal hearing.

Hey Bill I've been to Oz once, almost ended up in jail. They ask if I had any thing to declare when I got off the plane guns, drugs, boozed or felonies. They seem insulted when I answered no guns, drugs or booze and I didn't think a felony was required to get in anymore.
