The 650s and 700Ss had fuel/gear indicators on the dash. I dunno which smaller ones did or didn't. The gear indicator is nice, the fuel indicator is iffy at best. Even if it was working properly, how do you report the level of a tank constantly leaning one way or the other? So far I've been getting 46-49 mpg on my 650.
