Speedometer Recommendations? 1 Year, 10 Months ago
|
|
|
Thinking of swapping the gas tank over to something like a sportster tank. I will have to buy a new speedometer and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on one that I should go with. I am thinking something that is not digital since it really wouldn't fit the "bobber" style.
Thanks,
Michael

Just out of curiousity, cause ive never used a tach, how would I put RPM's into MPH? Also, I guess I would be more concerned about keeping up with mileage to track fuel level since I would no longer have a fuel gauge. The tach would be fine with me if I could just figure out how to swap RPM's into MPH. |

 you could check your mph with a gps unit, then see what rpm,s your at in each gear. borrow one if you don't have one. hope this helps . mort |

Ride along side someone with a GPS, 55MPH is 3000RPM on my 1100.
