Greytec Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Next to the A and B tripmeters the new VFR has another tripmeter that automatically resets with every new trip. Mine says 'zero' all the time. I remember reading about this issue somewhere, but can't find it anymore... Somebody?? Greetings, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Jochem Posted April 15, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2016 That would be the mileage countdown meter. Ref page 22 in your User Manual. "Distance travelled is subtracted from a preset figure" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtwindr Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 do people really set it at eg 150miles then stop when they hit the target! Seems utterly pointless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Rectaltronics Posted April 15, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2016 I always thought the speedo was pointless, LOL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MadScientist Posted April 15, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2016 I would never take the time to do it myself, but it could be used to set distance to your destination so you know how much further you have to ride for the day. Alternatively, it could be set for oil change/maintenance interval but the maximum distance is too short for this. I've seen this on bikes without a fuel gauge too, but that isn't the case here. I concur, though, useless feature. My 599 has one and I've never used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greytec Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Thanks! Now I know why people say RTFM!! I have seen the setting when I changed the clock a couple of weeks ago... don't want to use it. Greetings, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
