Hello Blinky, nice job !
One question, if I may :
Have you noticed any difference in the reading of the new Vs. the old speedo ? In other words, when the new, handlebar mounted speedo reads... 60mph, is it really 60mph?
I bought exactly the same speedo (in Km/h, but it's exactly the same instrument) and did a few minor mods to the final drive:
I fitted a
140/90x15 rear tire AND did the
chain conversion, with a final drive ratio which is now 2.88:1 Vs. the old 2.965:1 of the belt drive, so overall final drive is a full 4%+3% = 7% taller gearing...
...not much in terms of overall speed, accelleration or fuel economy, but at least the OEM speedo is now true !
So... issues ? is 60mph really 60mph, or is it closer to 47 ? 88 ? Just asking...
