I use one for gas at each fill up, and the other they set to zero at the dealership when I bought it, so I just leave it so I know exactly how far I've traveled on my bike since I've purchased it

I use (A) for gas refill and (B) for oil changes.

Not if he bought it used...
The 'miles ridden in rain' would be a neat feature if you could start/stop like a stopwatch.

Total km I use the Odometer
Gas or total milage for business trips A
Total milage for the season B reset each spring when the winter dust is blown off.

Stupid question? Why do you need to "track" Mileage for an oil change. I do that with the total mileage of the bike at recommended intervals. No need to use the a or b odo for that.

If you buy a used bike, even from a dealer your intervals are going to be off. For instance I bought my bike with 12,841 miles, they changed all my fluids when I bought it so my intervals are going to be off by at least 841 miles for the 3k interval fluids and more for the other fluids
