Originally posted by DGXSER View PostWalker, just so I can make sure I understand your system. The reality is that you will never find a replacement speedo with the same miles on it. I have never tried it, but perhaps you can "adjust" the milage to match when you switch the guts out. But if not, does your WOF inspection requirements not take into account that you need to upkeep your machine by replacing parts? Is it really expected that you trash any vehicle once a speedo gives up completely? Maybe I am misreading or interpreting this.
If modified or non oem parts not fitted to vehicles supplied into our market are used (i.e. a speedo in mph) then the bike must be submitted to an approved testing station for re-inspection and certification which is hugely expensive and time consuming, and to be avoided if at all possible.
Changing speedo's with differing odometer readings is an even bigger can of worms with all sorts of paperwork and declarations required to get it passed. And this is compounded by the fact that we use Km/h rather than mph.
It's not impossible, just bloody hard.
I'm pretty certain I can rebuild the internals of mine, I just need a new can and a glass to put it in.1980 SG. (Sold - waiting on replacement)
