As a kid I was taught in imperial, when I went to work I was taught both but now work mainly in metric, but when it comes to my vehicles-especially my bikes-I want speeds in mph! Only one of my bikes even has kph and that's in tiny lettering inside the mph bit so that leaves 3 others that would need new speedos and that doesn't come cheap. There is also the other issue of just how many road signs would need changing and how much our taxes would go up when the government use that as an excuse to raise more money from drivers!
