what are you after in particular? is it speedo in mph or a digital speedo? or generally just wondering what can be done?

I have modified my nc30 clocks completely so they now use a rrv fireblade mph speedo, they still use the original rev counter and temp gauge, this all now sits in the rrv dial assembly, still uses a normal speedo cable and will now read mph as i have used a uk fireblade speedo.

Im pretty sure riley has fitted a 600rr digital speedo, but that took some work from what he's said.

I spoke to him the other week and still having probs. I think he said he used an RS250 which was easier.

The Cbr600rr dash is not a straight forward conversion, its very nice but requires someone with good electrical knowledge/experience to fit (thankfully I have a mate who ticks all the boxes). The aprilia rs dash is more staight forward and offers some nice features, lap timer anyone?

Any tips on fitting the RS250 dash Riley? I've got one lying around, but it aint coming to life for me at all? Then again, it might just be dead :x

I was just hoping to use the NC tacho and RS LCD.

Again the Rs dash was done by a mate of mine, but it was basically a matter of getting the aprilia and Honda wiring looms and matching them up, the temp gauge worked perfectly and if you look closely you will notice that I fitted a Honda Rev counter into the aprilia housing - not exactly straight forward but it looked just right. You need to give the Lcd a permanent live feed off the ignition in order for it to work.

Sweet. I'm pretty sure I've tried that, but I'll have another crack at it before I chuck it!
