MPH speedo KMH odometer ?

sharpo · 24-Jun-2005, 15:09

I've just realised my odometer is clocking Kilometers but the speedo is showing Miles, what the f***.
Is there a reason/solution for this.

The good side of this is that the bikes done a lot less miles than i thought.

Most strange, that. Unless someone's messed with the internals, I don't see how that's possible. I suppose, it could be a defective unit and always was this way.

If someone's put an mph face on a kph clock that'll explain it - like the coloured ones you often see for sale??

I've got the same. My bike's an import, and they've done just that.

Yep...my SP has the same original KM clocks with a MPH facia ontop.

No wonder I keep getting overtaken on the motorway by a uni cycle.
