Speedo reads double after new pickup.
hey there can anyone shed light on why when i replaced the speed sensor on my sv650sk4 with a k4 used part its reading double the speed? is it the graphite collar inside that needs a new part or is the sensor readin kph instead of mph? it seems more like double than x1.6 cheers paul

Re: speed sensor issues
Probably, does your dash show KPH or MPH besides the zero?
If so: Press 'Sel' until you're on the ODO (mileage screen) Hold down 'Adj' for a few seconds. This will change it from KPH to MPH. HTH Chin |

Was it defo an 04 part? I have a feeling the speedo sensor changed on the pointy at some stage. ( disclaimer: I'm very drunk and came here by accident while looking for the panda/Beowulf pic I saw earlier)

Re: speed sensor issues
I'd make sure its the right part as the curvy and k3 (i think) were 4 pulse units and the pointies are 8 pulse units

Re: speed sensor issues
K3 and K4 are 4 pulse. K5 onwards are 8 pulse
Sounds like you got the wrong one |

not sure if it was the clocks, sensor and rotor that changed or all just rotor and sensor |
