90 Degree M12 Speedo Gearbox

Post by banjobill08 »

Hi all,
I'm after a speedo gearbox to turn the speedo cable fitting 90 degrees, why would you want to do that, I hear you cry? we'll by changing the clocks and fairing Im really tight on space and the bend to the speedo is a little tight.......

M12 X 1.0 on both ends. 1:1 Ratio similar to Moto Guzzi


regards.

Speedo Update,
If anyone has had a similar problem, a possible solution could be this, I'm looking at a Moto Guzzi 90 degree drive unit with a M16 threaded sleeve adapter to have a M12 internal thread and M16 external to screw on the speedo head, a M16 cap and a replacement ferrule on the original speedo cable.
Thats the theory anyway?

Regards.

Good luck with your plan, Bill.
I didn't know anything like this existed.

When i added an 13 row Earls oil cooler i had to get some different mounts to allow a working cable routing.
