1981 CM250T
« on: March 11, 2023, 07:17:22 PM »
Can anyone tell me if the original speedo fitted to a 1981 CM250T is a max of 80mph or the 100mph one; both of which I have seen advertised for sale for the CM250T, I'm just interested how come a bike which is supposed to have a top speed of 85 would have an 80mph speedo.

Have you searched for images of brochures / manuals that show the speedo? I saw a pic of a CM400 man ual, so there might be a 250 one out there.
