'95 Bandit 400 Speedo from KMH - MPH
« on: October 17, 2006, 06:42:02 PM »
Hi Guys (and Gals)

i have just bought a '95 Bandit 400 that seems to be an imported version. Being in the UK it would be extremely useful if the clocks were in MPH rather than KMH. Is there anyway to change this without replacing either the clock itself or the Speedo Drive??

If this is possible i would be extremely grateful on a tip as to how!!

Not ideal or 100% accurate i'm sure but its the cheapest easiest way. Apart from using permanent marker!

Motrax make a mechanical speedo converter, I have one on my B4. It's simple to fit and works well.

Typical mine seems to be the other way around! Mine is in KPH however being in the UK needs really to be in MPH! Though i think bigbadmad has resolved my issue for me, just need to get a converter..

Might be an idea to check if it hasnt already been resolved aswell i suppose!

Why don't you two trade?  :duh:

You could both be happy campers for the price of shipping between your two countries.
