If the US had stuck with the plan and gone metric with Canada in the 70's life would be sooo much easier now!
But getting back to the heart of the thread—vehicles both 2-wheel and 4 once upon a time had dual-labeled speedometers, the US speedo versions having metric numbers in smaller and different color print. Did that carry on till the rise of digital speedos or did that practice end earlier?

I just multiply in my head the metric sign speed number by .6 and round to the nearest 5 mph. Thus 90 = 55, 80= 50, 100 = 60 (62 actually) 40 = 25 etc. It isn't all that hard. They actually taught multiplication tables we had to memorize way-back-when I was in grade school. A hated lesson then I have learned to like now.
