Title: Speedo adjuster
Post by: Old_Mt_Isa_Boy on March 16, 2013, 10:09:09 AM
Looking for a Speedo adjuster that converts the MPH to KPH. Are they reliable?

Wayne, If your ride is standard there has been stickers made to fit onto the speedo. Not sure where to get them though. Other members might know.

The stickers are available from Rares. I was more interested in the little cogs.

My experience is that they are unreliable. I ran one in a car in the seventies and because the speedo now reads in km it is at max rpm at freeway speed and bounces around significantly between 90 and 110 kph. Eventually it jammed and I threw it away....

Might have to be the sticker.
