Speedo woes

[sodatab360]

I went up a bit in tire size on my 79 750e the front throwing my speedo off by about 10-12% or so and it's quite annoying. Anyone know of an electric speedo they've used that wasn't too big of a pain to install? Thanks a lot

Trailtech's Vapor. Speedo, tach, computer, about $130.

Or you can go, as I have, with a bicycle computer. Just make sure you use a wired one as the wireless type won't work due to electrical interference from the engine.

They are quite accurate when properly set up ( you need to input the exact rolling diameter of the tire) and likely more accurate than the stock speedos which are know to be off by as much as 5to 10% I'm told.

Cheaper too at $50 or less. Check with a bicycle store.

Cheers,
