I had to install a Sigma bike speedo as the tunnel on my Midget doesn't allow enough room to connect up a speedo cable and I don't want to do any cutting right now!
Besides being able to tell just how fast I've been driving...
I also learned that adding up your trips in your head and calculating your fuel economy isn't incredibly accurate.
So I filled up this Tuesday and drove all week. With a couple side trips to the grocery store & whatever the trip meter said 137 miles as I pulled in to fill up this afternoon.
That's way more than I would have guessed, due to not really adding up all the little places I go during the week.
It took 4.3 gallons. (US gal.)
The Sigma also records top speed, for the week it was 78 mph.
So pretty much driving like a madman and taking a lot of little short trips I'm getting 31.86 mpg. I wonder how good it would be with a rebuilt Hitachi downdraft carby? I wonder how good it would be if I could drive 55?
The world may never know...
