I have as you know a CB750 K6. the speedo is recording 70mph when i am doing 50mph. as i have spare gear boxes from a 250 and 500 could i have put the wrong one on or are they all the same as the front wheel is the same DIA?

Billy, i had the same problem with a CB550 clock. Stripped it - rebuilt it with a load of new parts and still had the same problem. In the end i sent it to Clockndials and he fixed it. May be worth giving him a ring.

Trig,
Its taken me ages to get a decent set of clocks and even now I am not 100 percent happy with those.I have had two sets done by pros and there still shit in my opinion.
Got there number mate?Forgot to add the worst was REPLICAS from DS sent them back twice and the third set still crap.
Cheers
Bitsa

At least you have the option of replica clocks my k1 speedo has been pants from day one and made far worse after it's bump on the nose.The trip and odo are now jammed and it reads about 20mph+ to fast.A second hand k1 speedo sells for around £160+ :o
I have just tracked down a low mileage Laverda Jota speedo which is the same internally as the k1 so hopefully after a rebuild it will be as good as new.

500 and 750 gearbox are the same part number, not sure about 250
