I had thought about that before.
My cycle frame came with the instrument cluster on the handlebars a bit messed up. I can't add too much up there without it looking messy real fast.
In my real world riding experience, I don't need to look at the ammeter much at all - I know how much it is pulling by feel.
One of the other reasons why I am using a large analog meter is that it is SO much easier to read while riding. It just takes a glance for the brain to register that the needle is in the middle - on a digital display - you have to read the characters, convert that to a number in your head, and recall the scale you are on and how that number relates to it.
I once had a vehicle with a digital speedometer - I hated it.
Big and analog are the way to go for vehicle instrumentation of all types.
(The only exception I would make to that would be a highly accurate volt meter that you use to check individual batteries for balancing while parked - not something you use while riding.)
