Even 675 has it, many rivals have it, not S3, why? I miss it on every
ride a few times. Shifting lights are useless, btw.

I guess it is just because of cost cutting. The display unit seems to have the number in it, but all other related hardware is missing.

Does the S3 have a gear position sensor at all? What I mean is, does the S3 have different ignition/fueling maps for different gears? If not, then there would be no real need for a gear position sensor either.

I have to admit, I would like one as well. Just one less thing I have to keep in my noggin.

I want one too! :hammer:

Does sprint ST have it? If it does there should be sensors. The motor is the after all, isn't it?

Just use the limiter as an indication of time to change up :-D

Would be useful, I hate shifting into 7th gear!

tekmoe · 08-23-2006

it would be nice but in my opinion it's really not needed. i know what gear i am in by matching the road speed to the engine speed. i know that when i am doing 60mph in 6th gear, the engine is turning over 3650rpm's. i also know when i am doing 80mph in 6th gear, the engine is turning over at 5000rpm's. :wink:

Thats all well and good Tekki, but you're always in 6th :-D
