Guest markchris Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Feeling guilty now...Seriously. I believe you've a 125, so in all probability it's just a cable. Dead easy to change and not expensive. I never used to buy new, used to get mine from a breakers, but a new one won't empty the bank.Just a knurled nut under speedo, and one on the front wheel, to remove cable. I'm sure if you went to a bike shop and fluttered your eye lashs, some kind mechanic would do it for free. You said that about mine - but it wasn't!! and mine still doesn't work!! I just count the number of lamp posts per second!! Nah nah nah!! Said it was a cable...Now this lap top of yours...When you put the battery in, did you notice the + and - ? Well ......

Guest Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Think they work in the same way a speedo would on a pushbike.. was thining about putting in on mine as they look quite neat and tidy and certainly better than the standard clocks on mine (in km/h - jap import)the prices are on the links too..
