Why do you need a speedometer?

You never look at it anyway, and if a passenger is with you, they can not look at it an give you hell for going too fast!

And if someone asks how fast you are going, you can always smile and say "pretty fast".

And if someone asks, where is your speedometer, you can smile and say "we don need no stinging speedometer!" but you have to say it in spanish for it to be funny. One liner from some movie "badges!, we don't need no stinking badges", but alzheimers has set in and I cannot remember the name of the movie.

Besides, it will cost a ton of money, and add a ton of weight, and make you go slower!

I took mine out when I put in the 915 for all of the above reasons except that I used to look at it once in awhile. Now I don't.
