Apart from the temp display being too small to easily read in daylight, I was very pleased with mine but it has just started over reading by almost exactly 40 degrees. I tried another (non-sip) with the gauge and it still over rear but not tried the sip probe on another gauge yet.
I have a Gamatech on my other scoot and it is faultless, easy to read and has facility for EGT as well...won't fit in the headset though

Now the earlier unreliability issues have been sorted it's a great piece of kit.

Got one in the series 2 and one in the series 3. Series 2 is great and easily read but series 3 is not easy to read because of the colours.

Got one but some of led segments stop lighting up soon after firing it up so just put standard unit back in. Not sure if I can just buy the head unit as all rest. Of it seems ok.

I like the idea. But, I'm a traditionalist and like the needle speedo. Trouble is it's pretty useless for the average Lambretta speeds and there's no way anyone is doing 140 MPH.

Not convinced myself ... all I see on Facebook is speople having trouble setting them up? .. putting size of wheels in width of tyres.. this is made for a Lambretta and should already be set up for one surely????

I was dreading having to set mine up but it luckily was defaulted to the right calibration. Matched my satnav 100% not sure if im just lucky or if they've made them work with a standard worm and drive setup.
Type 2 speedo for the series 1.
