The RCS+ limits measurement to 99mph. Other than that it works fine. You 
would be limited in mounting locations, the receiver takes up more room, 
and now you have two batteries to worry about.

Mine was pretty close to the limit, so I purchased the rear wheel sensor 
kit, which gives you a longer wire. No problems then....
