For whatever reason, is there a way to convert the reading on the odometer from kilometers to miles? (come on Punkdork, you should be quick on this one!)

Let me rephrase, is there a swith / jumper / hack, that I can perform on my 2K to change the display of kilometers to miles on the onboard display?

#1... why is your max measuring in kilometers??? I thought miles were used everywhere in North America.. (you prolly ARE gonna have to see the dealer in order to get your units switched)



#2.. Americans are non-conforming dumbasses... SI units are superior.... For some unfathomable reason, God gave you 10 fingers, why WOULDN'T you base measurements on powers of 10??? (sorry had to slip this in...)

Miles were used ONLY in the the United States. He got his in kilometers because he's in Canada.

Ya.. i know, i realized my error like 5 secs after posting... Canada DOES use km (duh, i've been up there)...

Guess it just goes to show that Canadians are more mathematically sensible creatures...

geesh.. 5280 ft to 1 mile --> somebody was on crack....
