Kph/mph speeo conversion

[Barny]

Hi guys,

Any idea if I can get a converter so that I can read my Kph speedo on my imported XL1000 in mph. It's fitted with nasty stickers at the 30mph, 50mph and 70mph which is far from ideal and if I were ever to go above 70, heavens forbid, I'd have no idea what speed I was doin officer.

Yours, stuck at 70, Barny

How about mental arithmetic?  100kph = 60mph so 200kph is very fast officer....

Have a look at this, it's for a VFR but are they likely to be different?

Thanks for this info guys. I've E-mail the E-bay sellar to see if he can confirm it suitability for the Vara. New items seem to be between about 40 & 60 pounds. Let you know how I get on.

Cheers, Barny
