4. Coolant temperature warning lamp
The speedometer unit is equipped
with a speedometer, an odometer and
a tripmeter. The speedometer shows
riding speed. The odometer shows
the total distance traveled. The trip-
meter shows the distance traveled
since it was last set to zero with the
reset knob. The tripmeter can be used
to estimate the distance that can be
traveled with a full tank of fuel. This
information will enable you to plan
future fuel stops.

with a speed limiter:
The speed limiter prevents the vehicle
from exceeding a riding speed of 80
km/h.
