Can you change from Fahrenheit to Celsius?

pwalhovd · 04-23-2009, 12:06 PM

Hi, wonder if anyone know if it is possible to shift the display to show Celsius instead of Fahrenheit.

I can see the C in the lcd panel looking at it from an angle, so I guess it is possible, but dont know how.

I know that you can hold down the left button on the panel to shift from mph to kmh, but the temperature is still shown in Fahrenheit.

The bike I am talking about is a Honda VFR 800 2002.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Petter

Hm not sure, in the manual it just says USA: Fahrenheit (°F), ; Canada : Centigrade (°C) but doesn't say how/if it can be changed....

Hi, just disasembled the panel, but found nothing.

There must be a way to change this - I do not beleive that honda make different panels.

Also I can see the C in the lcd panel looking at it from an angle.

Anyone know anything about this?

I checked the service manual, and it doesn't have anything on how to change. Suggest pressing the selector button and holding it to see if that will do it.

That's how to do it but I'm not sure if it's only on the Canadian models, our bikes do have a couple different features , Km's on speedo, daytime running lights etc.
