Nytro Tach

[yammi4ever]

I was flipping through a nytro manual last night and it says something about not using the tach while riding because it will not necesarrily be correct. Was I half asleep or what did they mean by that.

Also, does everyone put their spare belt in the bag, or buy the belt holder for the clutch cover.

Thanks,

Yes. You were half asleep.

they tell you not to use the tach while riding as it is too small to read easily when riding. and while you are trying to see the tach, you would remove your eyes from the trail or whatever surface you are riding on instead of watching where you are going. more of a liability statement than anything.

buy the belt clip save the room in the bag for other items, no storage on a nytro so you need all the room you can get. ski

They also could have put a instrument cluster like the Apex has and not had to dismiss liability.

Two things I will miss from my Apex to the Nytro, the motor (which I think I will fall in love all over again) and the Gauge Pod/Tach. I really thought that the Apex pod was one of the best in the biz. The only thing missing was a coolent temp read out. Being able to glance down and quickly see the needle swing was nice. But honestly. I probably used the sound of the motor more often to determine speed/decel rate. But seeing that tach go from 1,500 to 10,800 right-now was neat.

As far as the accuracy, I remember reading, and did notice on my Phazer that there is a slight delay in the gage updating. That or it's just too hard to read the changing numbers, as all of them may change in a second or two ie. 4,500 to 7,858 in one and a half seconds, it just becomes to hard to read. I think for longer more stable runs (WFO's) you could use it to determine clutching/gearing but you do loose the ability to watch the sweep. Besides there isn't enough room of the sled for a bigger pod. Did anyone try connecting their Apex pod to the Nytro? I wonder i it would even work?
