Title: New Speedometer
Post by Beagle on 02/11/15 at 18:17:49

I have been thinking of getting a speedometer and put it on the handlebars. I think that would be easier to see.

Any recommendations?

I kind of like the look on this one:

but I don't know if the Suzuki cable would fit in it. So, anyone have a suggestion on a speedometer and the speedo cable?

Beagle,

Usually the reason most of us want a different, than the stock OEM, speedometer is to get a "Trip Odometer". This speedometer shown on eBay does not have a trip odometer.

Well...the price is right, and it looks good.

It appears that speedometer is made to bolt into the headlight housing of the Royal Enfield - you would have to come up with some kind of a housing for it.

They also don't say what the drive ration is.....you have no way of knowing if the thing will read accurately - or even close to the correct speed.

ToesNose has a good post about a new speedometer and a tach. Very well written and looks good too.
