Not really a big issue more a niggle but anyway since i got my T back in April i had noticed that the speedo never shows 32mph. It just simply goes 29,30,31 then 33 no matter how slowly you take it up it never shows 32 very weird.

Its not like the 2 does not work because 12mph 22mph 42mph and so on all work its only 32:banghead

So does anyone else's not show this??

:cheers
 
I usually look where I`m going and only look at speed when there is a camera or copper around
 
Cheers for that, must just be an issue with mine then.

Just wanted to ask the question in case it was a feature with them all.
 
bin out for a blat today..... and noticed mine doesnt show 32 either !

Tiz an 07.....

God dam quirky italian...... i love it !

:)
 
Thats strange that its the same on both bikes and they are both 2007 models.

Like you say god dam I Ties eh?

Yep someone did comment on the fact that they only look where they are going but i tend to have the occasional glance at the speedo in 20's and 30 zones to make sure i am sticking to the limit, dont give as much consideration when on the open road but in town i do. Thats where your most likley to injure someone.

I hate the folk that just sit at 45mph no matter where they are whether it be in town or on the open road, fcuken does my nut in!
 
Took my Diablo Black '07 on an errand today and checked out this wacko speedo/clock deal. I couldn't believe it! The sucker jumps the same way: from 31 mph to 33. Freakin' Weird!


I had a bit of a clear stretch of tarmac as I was passing the old, abandoned Marine airbase here in Irvine, CA, so I took on an uncharacteristic steady hand on the throttle and eased her slowly down, oh, 85, 40, 34, 33 then, ????. . . 31. Whoa!


Then, for no reason, I thought, "Pull in the dash toggle/set switch while doing same." So again, 87, 53, 35, 34, 33 . . . and pow! The LCD panel goes . . . just nuts and . . . everything is in a jumble where numbers should be. Nothing but a pixillated swirling about and things were looking really strange.


So, I tried to shock it back out with, and you got to try this, but you've got to really f-o-c-u-s! Give it the following: break,gas, break,gas, break-gas, break-gas, about 5 or 6 times. Holly mother of Bolognia! My orangie/red dash suddenly went all 666. . . .No, really!


It don't say kilos or mph, so I'm not sure how serious this is. Let us know if you get the same result on yours. No . . . really! . . . Try it!
 
Traffic lights in town around here are not synced, so it's a bit of a risk. Hold that thought until I get a chance to get out in the country this weekend.
 
Tried mine while out for a run last night - 08 bike - couldnt get it to show 32 on either the run up or run down ! Ah well - neednt look again now :)
 
My 09 Factory doesnt show it either. Not really fussed about it.


Same here not fussed about it, just wanted to see if the peculiarity was only down to my bike or if it was a quirk across them all.

Cheers everyone for letting us know :thumbup
 
I'm always accelerating or decelerating past 32 mph, s dunno. I do notice on takeoff from a stop the speedo is slow to catch up. No matter, shouldn't be looking down there anyway. :cheers

Well if you get a chance give it a try it would appear to be a pretty common issue.
 
I made myself a note to try it on tomorrows ride.
See if I can go that slow for a few seconds. Can the T do 32? :biggrin:
 
Just would appear to be a software glitch on the 06 on, strange as 32 appears to be the only number to be jumped !
