    Went and bought a lovely looking mini-speedo today for £28 from my local shop/breakers.
    Got it home,unwrapped it and bugger,its in increments of 20 and in the middle it states x100 RPM!
    So,as its obviously a rev counter I go back and spend 10 minutes arguing the toss[:(!]
    The end result?I,ve got to ring on Wednesday after the reps been and see what the outcome is.The lad in the shop still swears blind its a speedo.So I,ll have to wait and see………………..not a happy bunny tonight[V]

    No mate.Just a plain plastic bag and plain box.
    Its a 4:1 ratio as well so I can,t see that being right for a speedo[:(]

    Was the one you saw which made you buy it different?

    There’s no place like 127.0.0.1
    There are only 10 types of people in the world; those who understand binary and those who don’t

    you can return it on that basis alone i think
    its your right as a consumer to expect to get what you asked for take it back and tell them you want the correct item or your money back there and then or you’ll call trading standards AS WELL as tell everyone you know who owns a bike not to shop there
