KPH to MPH
Whats the best way of converting a 3TJ2 from kilometers per hour to miles per hour.
I presume the mechanical gear box on the back of the speedo is available in two varieties. shoot me down if i am being foolish!

Re: KPH to MPH
Easiest way is to use a sicker on the speedo thats maked in MPH gradings, they're a bit harder to read and will depend on you getting the sticker in the right place, you can also get them to stick onto the clock face as weel - try redial for those.
The best way though is to use a gold mechanical converter that scews at the wheel end. Your speedo will read MPH instead of KMH. It converts the odometer and trip too, so remeber the total mileage (kilomige ?) will read wrong, you might want to declare that if you sell the bike. The other useful thing about this is you don't hit the 180kmh (112mph) speed restriction, so you can use full speed on a track day.
