Speedo conversion to kph.

(1/3) > >>

Lobo:
Beginning to tire of constantly doin’ the math as I drive about a kph country on my mph clocks. Lecram kindly provided me K2 kph faces when I bought new crimp rings, and perhaps the time has come for the change over.
Except I’ve just realised the trip & odometer will still be in miles. Dang.
Anyone know where the difference is... ie within the instrument or speedo drive?
An easy fix... obtainable parts etc?
(I assume the needle will continue to read correctly; as simply against a different linear scale.)
Ta,
Simon

Bryanj:
Clock is different, drive is same

Seamus:
Perhaps a recalibration would do it, or perhaps one of the mechanical speedo healers. Think they are available in mph to kph.
May be a bit fussy to read as KPM clocks have more numbers on the dials

MrDavo:
Tired of having to do mental arithmetic every time the speed limit changed, I sent my CB750 clocks to cb750faces (board sponsors) who converted the speedo properly.

They reset the mileometer as well, so you can convert you kmage into mileage.

It cost a bit, but I was very happy with the result.

cooleronthecoast:
There's a speedo on ebay now in kph, not too expensive:
