Title: Speedo & Odometer
Post by: oRi on September 25, 2004, 02:03:03 PM
Looking at getting the above destricted and reading mph instead of kmh. Anyone able to tell me whether its cable or electronic. Would assume electronic but i dont know.

oRi,

Your speedo should conveniently go up to 180 kmph which is a good enough number for mph max when it\'s derestricted.  
Mine is still the original speedo as I think a lot are.  just take a marker pen and make the "k" at the start disappear when you get it converted and Bob\'s a relative of some kind. :)

You\'ll be left with km in the odometer unless you replace the digital bit, but I think you can either get paperwork at the same time saying what the km reading was and anything after that will be in miles, alternatively you should be able to have it reset to read the appropriate no of miles and then add on in miles if that makes sense.  
The second alternative saves needing a calculator to work out how many miles are on your engine tho ;)
