« on: July 10, 2021, 15:57:57 »
Hi took a dl1050 out today ,  loved it

They was a white light that came on when riding at top of the dash no idea what that is ?

Also what's the Z like symbol at top left hand size of screen ?

The white light is a rev limiter warning (you set the limit in the setup menu). The "Z" lights when you should change up a gear. As an aside, apparently the screen scratches very easily, so either be very careful when wiping/cleaning it, or fit a screen protector (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324223277271).

+1 on the screen protector,  cheap preventative mod.

On a related note, if you use a TomTom Sat Nav, one of these (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/402527258847?hash=item5db87e88df:g:st8AAOSwdohftDPQ) mounts it nicely on the accesory bar above the dash.
