Hi all,

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... _600wt_906

Just found this overlay on ebay, spacing looks ok to me, with about 81mph directly across from 0 (130kph is in this position on my CBR's clocks) and horizontal looks to be about 43mph/ 70 kph.

I've asked the seller about the OD but in terms of numbers on the dial it looks right to me. Does it look right to anyone else?

Hey rickee head over to the vfr forum and check out their request for peeps who want to buy this type of thing as they want to buy in bulk, I think they would fit the CBR but im not 100% certain. BTW these replace your dial not stick to the clock.

I was thinking about it but the only thing put me off was that I use a blue converter that converts my speedo and odo to mph/milage and by using an overlay I would futher muck up my odo readings as I think the odo would revert back to kilometres although the speedo would show mph correctly of course.

My wife has been looking for a speedo overlay sticker for her bike, but can't find one. Also, doesn't want to put a converter on, don't want to mess with the odo. So she has laminated a piece of paper with the MPH to KPH conversions and tie wrapped it to the yoke, it's more for quick reference.

the GSXR750 overlay from that seller fits perfectly and lines up on the marks properly. only one a little out is 70mph which gives a slight over read (i.e. on the 70mph mark you ar doing 69 mph ish.

Perfect and only £6 :)
