Default SV650 speedo sensor?

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know if a newer gen speedo sensor say from an '06 would fit a '99 Curvy?

Looking at listing and images, there seems to be no difference between the two?

Thanks.

I'm probably not best qualified to answer this one, but as no one else is helping I'll tell you what I believe to be true and hopefully someone else will confirm it. As far as I know the difference is the number of magnetic pulses per revolution - four pulses on the curvy and six on the pointy. So in short I don't think you can interchange them.

It won't
The 2006 has a different pulse sequence

Can't help with your question
However, if it does I have a spare you can have for a tenner. PM me if it does and you want it.

To clarify, you do mean the sensor and wiring with connector rather than the rotor (made from 100% cruddite) 4 pulse which I don't have !!

Franco's Motorbikes sell them for £25 inc postage.

Yeah the actually sensor with wire and connector, I already have a new rotor.

Franco's don't seem to be listing the actual sensor.

I have found from here and other sources that it needs to be a 99-02 sensor because of the magnet layout difference. Thanks for that guys.

There are brand new parts listed in the US for like £90 plus postage. Bit too much!

If anyone does have a spare 99-02 speedo sensor, it would be great if I could buy it from you.

Thank you.

Off to fleabay for you then!

£30-35 tops. Should be a few out there as they're reasonably robust (though not in your case d'oh).

The pickup housing is the same, but the rotor is different.
