Thanks guys - I'm a way off fitting it yet - just needed to know practicalities so I can set to on the double disc conversion - it was the speedo drive that was my main concern so now I know there are practical options, I can do the conversion accordingly. The cr750 will not use the standardised speedo so losing the drive will help. After your comments, will probably go for a sensor based one.
Thanks for your help

I have used a bicycle speedo on mine Phil, it means that you can have just a rev counter and oil pressure gauge on the dash, I've mounted the speedo on the centre support for the fairing in front of the yoke so it's tucked away but easy to see when riding, it's accurate and reads up to 125mph (not sure why the manufacturer thought a cyclist would be doing 125mph 😄) I've glued the magnet for the sensor to one of the disc bolts and the pick up on the wheel side of the slider so once again it's tucked away and hard to see, the speedo is not part of the MOT so no problem s there, I leave mine on the clock function so I know what time it is as well, plus you have trip/odo/ etc, even altitude 😄,  cheap as chips as well.
PS if you did go this way make sure it has auto start, it switches itself on as soon as the wheel rotates, and off after the bike has been stationery for 5 minutes.

Thanks Mark, I'll be in touch when I'm at that stage - I'm just refubing the 2nd caliper/disc set up, making footrest mounts (help from Scott CR21 - thanks) and about to order the Simon Tappin Moonpie exhaust - so some months off finishing and am aiming for spring 2018.

It's moving ahead then Phil, I've got a brand new David silver gold Wing reproduction master cylinder suitable for twin disc set up if you need one.

Hello Phil,

Only a minor point as you have a way ahead, but, speedo's are not actually checked as part of the MOT. 

Cheers  Geoff
