Does the Zumo XT track miles?

Post by budweizer »

I'm interested in buying a zumo xt for my Honda XR650L adventure/single track bike. I ride probably 80 street 20 off road. I bought a set of black KKE wheels and now I lost my mechanical speedometer. I have been running a trail tech vapor for a few months but it might be a defective unit because it does NOT keep mileage. After every ride the odometer resets. I always wanted a Zumo XT but to justify it I would like to know if it also works as a Odometer or if there is an app I can get on the Zumo that would be an odometer?

Thanks

Yes, the XT will act as an odometer. It has 2 separately reset-able "distance traveled" parameters. They do not reset until done manually or maybe when a master reset is done but I've never done one. I routinely use Distance Traveled A for daily mileage and B for cumulative mileage over the entire trip.
