    Apart from using it as a diagnostic tool not sure how useful it will be as a rider aid, mainly because it’s so small when riding.

    When I picked my new Blade up yesterday, the salesman explained the dash to me and told me the grip angle was the lean angle of the bike. He was obviously wrong. A tad worrying if the dealers don't understand it.

    Did he also tell you that you could change the rear tyre for a slick and track the bike
    They bend the truth a bit these sales guys.
    Ace bike as long as you keep it stock

    Yep, very worrying. All they have to do is read the manual.

    In the olden days we possessed 'product' knowledge. Today, most rely on 'bullshit'.:(
