Absolutely insane question regarding stock speedo gauges


Recommended Posts

Update....

I wound up buying a brand new 2004 Kawasaki ZX10 sprocket nut from Cheap Cycle Parts and test fitted it today, it threaded on the output shaft beautifully..... (y)

I didn't do much past that because I'm super busy, but I'll report back later once we're sure we're getting the proper signal to electrically "stimulate" the clocks.

 

This Suzuki speed rotor:

And this ZX10 sprocket nut:

are almost identical "dimensionally" to each other on the corners where it counts.

 

This is what it'll look like obviously once bolted on:

As long as we get the clearance right, I think it's going to work.

Promise to report back within a week or so with the progress and whether it was a success or not.

 

                                               Thanks for getting me to this point gang, I would have never known about this trick without you guys.....
