speedo conversion
 
Hi all, so having just bought a imported SVk1 I now have to sort out the speedo. Searching this forum it seems that everybody agrees that it's a piece of pi*s. Called some people including Motrax and they also claimed it's a doddle....I'm scared! Anyway, no-one seems to know whether or not the K1 is electric or mechanical speedo reading. Now I know someone here can tell me before I order it.
Oh and wish me luck!

Cheers
Sean

Cheers Sid, will have a word with Chas bikes, see if they can give me a good price on fitting. I think learning curves should be gradual and maybe I should try an oil change first! :oops:

The ones I've seen just plug in, find the three pin plug in the wire that goes from the speedo drive on the front wheel into the clocks - It's under the fairing and has a pink wire, an orange and green wire and a black and white wire - disconnect it and plug the converter in-between the two original plugs, job done.

No need for the dreaded spending of your hard earned.

Think I've got one in my tool box, used it on mine for a couple of months until I changed to UK one, it's a two minute plugin jobbie.

I'll have a look if you like?

Cheers Mark.
