Title: Speedo relocate
Post by YonuhAdisi on 05/12/08 at 17:42:58

Okay, I know several of you guys have relocated the speedo to the handlebars. Where can a get a longer cable? I will have to do the relocation mod as well when I put the Road King tank on the FireLizard.

I have heard mention that the cable from another type of bike will work, what kind of bike? Make and model please.

Okay, did a search on speedometer and from what I understand I will need the tach cable off of a GT250. Is that correct?

It's the tach cable from the 750 I think. It's a three cyl. Suzuki bike that's been out of production for quite a while. I got mine out of a bike bone yard. It's actually a little too long, but if you keep it lubricated (just use the same oil you use in the bike) the little herky-jerkys go away.

When you're ready to do the move up there to the bars I can tell you what I did. It's cheap, it's pretty and it's easy.

Yeah, Max mentioned that in my Road King tank thread. I misread the original thread I found the reference in. I thought it said 250 when in fact it said 750. That's what I get for reading stuff while tired.
