Gen III tilt tip
Posted: Mon Nov 24, 2008 7:24 am
If you have a Gen III unit and have done your calibrations (tilt, offset, coast downs, cal ride) and created a profile then there is NO NEED to do a new tilt calibration on your bike...ever...as long as you don't bump your bike badly or change the mount's position.
In fact, as you ride the Gen III gets smarter and smarter about the tilt behavior of your bike and it remembers the appropriate corrections.
However, whenever you perform a tilt calibration the tilt correction memory is erased and you start again from zero. So, it's actually a counterproductive thing to do a tilt cal before every ride!
Yesterday I put my Gen III on my bike, pushed the center button to pair, checked wind offset (it was 0.0) then rode.
Everything was perfect.
