Diagram I ordered this tachometer and got the color diagram for it, I am posting it here, hope u find it helpful Black,purple - rpm Black- live from key ignition Light blue- right side signal Dark blue-high light White yellow- neutral Orange- left side signal Brown- running light Red- direct from bat Black white-speed Purple- connect to sensor directly Light green- gear 1 Light green brown - gear 2 Light green green - gear 3 Light green yellow - gear 4 Light green black - gear 5 Light green blue - gear 6 Green black - grounding Green black - grounding Blue white - fuel level Found your video much helpful . Thanks for posting this !!
there is 2 of them that are the same but they used different color for the wire i got the one with the wrong color but i look at pic and was amble to fine what color did what by the placement for the one i have the rpm color is blue and weight and my fuel level is yellow and black
Barry Ziza thanks so much for that. Tried connecting red to battery and it goes off. Got a black/white which I think is the ground on my bike. Does that go to the green/black on the plug? Been a total nightmare lol
Thanks again for the help. I thought I would share my experience installing on my 1984 Honda Magna V65. For the tach, I followed your advice and wired into the blue wire of the pulse generator, but I programmed the speedometer for 2 cylinders instead of my 4. My MPH reading is more accurate by just programming a higher number for the circumference /number of magnets. I'm using 818 and it's much more accurate. Thanks again
FUEL GAUGE Some of the posts on this and other videos state that grounding the fuel gauge wire (blue and white) will cause the fuel gauge to stop flashing. With my ones (3 of them) this was not the case. I have found that you need to ground it via a resistance of between 30 to 500 ohm. Anything more or less wont have any effect. 500ohm displays 1 bar (of 8) i.e. almost empty. 30ohm displays 8 bars (full). (about 330ohm is half full etc.) So if grounding the fuel wire doesn't work for you, try grounding it through a resistor between 30 and 500 ohms.
Thanks again for the video. Here's my experience with my 1984 Honda Magna V65.... My MPH setting is more accurate by playing with the numbers, rather than following the instructions. I programmed in 818, much better than diameter / the 3 magnets that I'm using. Also, I set it for 2 cylinders instead of my 4, and followed your advice and wired into the blue wire of the pulse generator. Thanks again
Podłączałem ten licznik w quadzie atv, czerwony przewód to + stały z akumulatora do podtrzymania pamięci, czarny przewód to + po zapłonie, zielony przewód to masa. Obrotomierz ( żółto-czarny) podłączamy do przewodu impulsatora, którego możemy znaleźć w module cdi. W zestawie była blaszka do przykręcenia czujnika prędkości, przykręciłem tą blaszke do śrubki od zacisku hamulcowego, 3 magnesiki rozmieściłem od wewnętrznej części felgi na całym obwodzie felgi.
tachometer solution - (Honda CBX 750) capacitor 20-90 nF and resistor 100 kOhm. Signal line from coil (spark unit) to 1. leg of cap., from 2. leg of cap. to signal wire of tacho. Resistor- from 2. leg of cap to the ground. Good Luck
The RPM should be connected directly to the pickup coil (eg the wire between the coil and the spark unit) if you have that. fixed mine today and it is steady and fine. Can't say if it is the same if you have points. Good luck
+DRugfree1987 Have you seen the video and did it help? I have moved on to the next task, getting the ODO to show same mileage as the old gauge, I know! a bit exaggerative but I found a pulsgenerator for under 8$ that's working so the gauge is "driving" at 180 km/h during the nights to get the ODO up to 25000 km. After that I will try to get the gear indicator working by using a universal GID that's using RPM and speed to calculate the gear (needs to be programmed to the actual bike) and then using that signal to show right gear in the gauge.
+jamtJrus I did not get a chance to try it out since I getting my other bike ready for a upcoming trip. but once I get back I will definitely try it. sounds very hopeful. I will be jumping for joy if it really works.
I installed the digital speedometer on a 78 honda hawk CB400 but the coundn't manage to get the rpm working. How can I get it working since this kinda old bike rpm usually works with a cable? I'll appreciate if some one can help.
I managed to get gears indicator to work. Used a GPS gear position sensor for next model and soldered wire to it. Also fuel did not initially work with only geound bu after I used condensr of 100 nFarad and 15 Koms resistor. Indicator set do 3 in menu 4
Wow brother! I had a 85 cb750 I bobbed out turned out into a nice bike... but your! Beautiful man just beautiful! I just picked up this speedo for the newest project a 95 zx7r. My pig tails for this speedo and the ones on my bike are the same ones lmao as in both are male ends however the ones on my speedo are female so I'm just gonna switch them
Hey bro, love the video and glad I was able to find it. I have this exact speedo and I am trying to get the power to work. I have run the same wire that ran to my stock speedo backlight but it still does nothing. I wondered how you ran your power to the speedo so I could copy your technique. Also, I bought another electronic converting speedo cable from Dime City Cycles and I wondered if you knew if that would work. Anything helps man, I really appreciate it.
you have to wire up the memory wire and power wire to the positive of the battery and then the neutral wire to ground. that will be the bare minimum to turn it on. and I'm not familiar with stuff from dime city. but the speedo that comes with the guage should work fine
What do you mean memory wire? I only ask because in the very limited manual that shipped with it, it has no wire that is marked as anythign to do with memory. I have my turn signals and headlight/bright light indicator working, but no power anywhere else. Also, if I am going to use the speedo cable that went with it, how did you hook yours up?
it's a wire that goes starlight to the battery. so that it can save the settings. I think mine was red. but I know that they changed somethings around from the first batch that came out. so yours might be different.
Mine did not work as well on fuel. I had to go to the main menu and selected setting 1 to 5. As soon as did hold for the next 5 secs after setting number 5, the speedometer restarted and the fuel reading was working ok. The tricky part is to get it reboot i guess after setting number 5. Its reading full because the resistance or the resistance range is too off. You need to get a multi meter and set it to Ohms (AUTO), and make sure it reads 8 Ohms when empty and 98 when full. This is the fuel sender Ohm range for this speedometer as per the poor manual. Not sure but I guess you can mode the end points of your bikes gauge with resistors to be in the range of this speedometer requirements or else there is a way to to program it maybe to accept different ranges? I am using this speedometer for my personal project and my fuel sender reads around 40+ Ohms when empty and 220+ Ohms when full so i will try to make it to be in the range of 8 to 98 Ohms. If I manage to do it then I will share here. Connections/wiring for those who cant get it right: For the two wires of the sender unit from the tank, ground one of them and the other connect it to blue-white (signal wire) of the speedometer. That's it.
Update: I quickly checked and realized that i have a trim port (tiny variable resistor) , bridged it between the signal line from the speedometer and that of the sender unit and i was able to trim one side that makes sense and that is the empty side. Pushing the sender to the full position would indicate half on the fuel gauge. At least this way you can know half full indication means full and empty means almost to zero or zero it self.
Saeed Al Habsi thanks for sharing that. Have you tried to get the same resistance required at the manual by using one or more resistors in line with the fuel sensor?
Hi! I installed this speedo and everything seems working fine, but when the motorcycle start runing the only thing visible in this speedo is the neutral position. Does anyone have an idea what's going on? Thanks
That's for the Video, i'll buy that one. It seems quite good for the money. I did not know how the Tachometer is connected. Are you still satisfied so far? Will the settings be cleared if the battery is disconnected?
Hi all, looking into this speedometer for my cafe racer. Love how it looks and works on the video. What’s your recommendations after installing it? Does it work properly?
Yes. Thank you. I do know about that now. But back when I made the video the speedometer was very new to the market and had a lot of very misleading info. And that was one of the main reasons I made the video.
so I figured out how to change the 3 digit tire/ wheel size and save it on the menu. The problem is is that all other universal speedometers I have seen have a 4 digit tire diameter code in millimeters. This gauge as you know has only 3 digits. I think it's 50-999. What measurement is this supposed to be? What did you enter based on your wheel dimensions?
hi. I have a '75 CB360. The neutral light is not on the dial, it's on the middle panel. As far as the visual, can you see the N when not in use, or it is it pretty camelflaged when not lit? Also, the odometer being replaced only has two wires going out. I like that low batt feature on yours. Will that speedo pickup on that automatically, or is it a separate lead? thx!
Nice vid, for wiring the the indicators on the gauge, should I follow the wire diagram for my bike, to where I need to splice the ground and power or do I just connect it straight since the gauge has its on power and ground?
I purchased one of these, the instructions are not great, the wiring colours and connections are correct except for the black wire in the 9 pin connector which is listed as "Electric Door Lock" strange for a Motorcycle gauge, it should read Ignition power or power when ignition is on. Also to get into the settings you have to hold the settings button and then powerup, continue holding until the settings mode is entered. easy way to work out circumference of wheel is mark the tyre and floor then roll the bike forward until mark on tyre comes back to floor mark and measure between.
Helpful vid, what did you put in for the speedo numbers, the info I have seen says the circumference of the tyre, in my case 120/70 17 is approx 1860mm but you can only put in 3 numbers! Do you have to put in the amount of magnet pickups? The oil sensor is the fuel sensor 1=100 Ohms and 5=500 Ohms depending on the sender you have in the tank.
+DRugfree1987 But then 777 is way off from 1860 how have you got to this number? I could do with understanding this, where have you fitted your magnets, how far are they away from the spindle?
+The Alchemist The wheel circumference divided by number of magnets, if you have 1 meter circumference and two magnets you have 1000mm / 2 = 500mm. I have 5 magnets on mine so for me the same circumference would be divided in 5 = 200mm
Hi DRugfree1987! Great video, I found the same speedo and want to mount it on a Honda CM400. May I ask you what tires you have on your bike? I'm absolutely in love with them, but can't find brand and model to see if I can buy them for my CM400. Thanks!
Hey everyone, Just bought the same speedometer but are having problems with installing it. Headlight and turnsignals works fine on the display but there is no light on the display (its totally dark). It is connected directly to the battery. Any suggestions?
lost me on the battery light.... when it gets below 20 volts? hmmm... nice video though... wished I had a better view of the how you hooked up the mph sensor... thanks for posting the video... the price has dropped to about $26 on ebay,I think I'll buy one...
I have installed this on my single cylinder motorbike but accidently i pressed in setting and now i have only two options 2 & 4, how to get back to 1? Is there any full reset option?
hello I bought it. but I have a problem I can not put the engine speed, it works everything else belonging tours ... I have a transal XL600 ... how can I solve my problem? thank you
Hi I just bought this speedometer and the eBay seller didn't include full instructions. Your video has helped with some of my questions, but now I'm curious about the margnets. The speedometer sent to me has three magnets. Does the speedo use all three or are they sent as spares?
Justin Duncan of I remember correctly. to get it set up right you have to measure the wheel in mm. then if you have 2 magnets you will then divide that number by two. and if you use three magnets you divide it by three that's how you get the number you need to put in the tach for wheel size. that helpef
Hi guys, I just purchased this speedo and my only concern is the wiring for the gear indicator, it mentions that N, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 are "NEGATIVE GEAR CONNECTION", so I assume it must ground to activate that gear number, but my motorcycle (Vento Tornado 250cc) only sends ground on N while all others are voltage... do I need to build relay fixes for each wire or does this device work with this configuration? Thanks in advance

I have some doubts DRugfree1987 - The tacho/speedo I got, has a very short rpm cable. Can I use some other cable to link it and then wrap it around the spark plug cable? 2nd - Is there a way to change the firing cycle? .5, 1 or 2? like 1 pulse per 2 revs, 1 pulse every rev (wasted spark) ... that way. Is there a way to change it?
Just a quick question, do you know if the Acewell digital conversion speedo cables would work with one of these so you can get away from mounting all the stuff on the wheel/caliper?
mine rpm 'die off' after working for 2 weeks only and the rpm also doesnt accurate(1cyl engine)..about the speedo have you guys get the presice speed?mine not...even i put 4 magnet for also the same..speed doesnt accurate..😥
I'm wondering if you have the wiring colour coding figured out? I have the same gage and I have an older which has a pink wire and no purple wires. Any wiring help would be greatly appreciated
ive got the same clock but cant get the gears to show. i connected the wires up from my old clock put them to my new one but wont work any advice cheers
I’m a bit late to the party on this one. However, I am hoping to confirm that these external speedometers not only come with display units but also are supplied with the necessary equipment to calculate the speed of the bike i.e. magnets that attach to the wheel and the fork to work out the speed? Also, does anyone know if these are road legal in the UK? Thanks
Oops and there blz? Man, I'm assembling this panel on a Moby and I'm having trouble getting the rpm to work, when I turn on pin 9, which is the rpm signal wire to the positive of the cdi, it doesn't work, but if I disconnect the CDI wire but leave it connected the coil only on the panel, when I pull the string to make contact the pointer moves, but if I connect it (coil wire and panel) to the cdi the pointer does not move. Can you help me? The cdi is grounded on the board and the panel is connected to the battery negative, if I ground the battery negative on the Moby board of the short, I don't know if it has to do with the non-functioning with the negative of the panel n being grounded TB in the board as the one from the cdi. Can you help me?
I have an 84 VT700 (Shadow). I'm tempted to cut down and run without a dash at all, but perhaps you can help me out a little. Did you connect diodes between every dash indicator light (turn, oil pressure, neut., etc)? I have the colored wire that matches up fine with the wiring diagram in the speedo, but there is also what seems like a negative for every colored wire. Neutral light for example has a G/R but there is also a Br/B on the original wire diagram but there is nowhere to put the Br/B. Do I need a diode between the two or how exactly do I wire it up?
hello i hawe a problem my rpm meter dont show a right when its working , its shows to mach ,when its works wery minimal its show 4000 rpm , can you tell me how to set number of cilinders 2 , ? i think now its standing to 4
Nice video. I have this gauge and I like it very much. But I have a triple and the tacho is adjustable for 2 or 4 cylinders only and rpms doesn't shows correctly for me :(
you can fix that by taking signal from two cylinders. But then you have to use one diod for each to prevent the signal from one coil to trigger the other. the diod only lets signal pass thru one way
Hi! De speedo works pretty well. But the rpm doesn't work at all and the odometer is so wrong.... In 10 km mark by GPS the gauge marks 18 km.... And I was thinking that my bike was doing great economy on fuel... Lol
DRugfree1987 Hi Mate, i am connecting same unit onto my gl650 honda. I've noticed that your shift position says 6 while mine is 0. I havent connected any whites and my bike isn't meant to have shift position sensor. So i thought if I but a universal one from ebay, would it work. Basically, im wondering how you made gear indicator to work? kr pasha
+Melvin Jerremiah Gepte I heard that a well, have not tried it, I will though because it's not responding very well. If not i will just leave it bouncy lol. Thanks
Hi, I'm bought this speedometer for my yamaha yb125sp, everything seems right but I can't figure out how to make the rpm work? Could you please help me?
Hi just wanna ask how did you make the battery indicator work? What wires did you connect it too?, Because mine is not working. When turning the key on it won't lit up with the rest of the speedometer..
Hey maybe you could help me out or someone in the comments with a nighthawk 550 or 650, so I have the speedo wired up and everything works on the speedo, the only problem I am having is that when I turn the bike it turns on and runs for a little but then turns off, after it turns off it doesn’t turn back on. I’m not sure what it is, I grounded all the ground wires but I left the black and striped brown wires lose, I found that they were positive wires but I have no idea where they go. So my question really is what are the black and brown positive wires on your bike and where did you connect them to?

Found your video much helpful . Thanks for posting this !!
there is 2 of them that are the same but they used different color for the wire i got the one with the wrong color but i look at pic and was amble to fine what color did what by the placement for the one i have the rpm color is blue and weight and my fuel level is yellow and black
can you send me the whole diagram please.
Hi! can I install this in Royal Enfield ? Where can i buy this...?
Barry Ziza thanks so much for that. Tried connecting red to battery and it goes off. Got a black/white which I think is the ground on my bike. Does that go to the green/black on the plug? Been a total nightmare lol

Thanks again for the help. I thought I would share my experience installing on my 1984 Honda Magna V65. For the tach, I followed your advice and wired into the blue wire of the pulse generator, but I programmed the speedometer for 2 cylinders instead of my 4. My MPH reading is more accurate by just programming a higher number for the circumference /number of magnets. I'm using 818 and it's much more accurate. Thanks again

FUEL GAUGE
Some of the posts on this and other videos state that grounding the fuel gauge wire (blue and white) will cause the fuel gauge to stop flashing. With my ones (3 of them) this was not the case. I have found that you need to ground it via a resistance of between 30 to 500 ohm. Anything more or less wont have any effect. 500ohm displays 1 bar (of 8) i.e. almost empty. 30ohm displays 8 bars (full). (about 330ohm is half full etc.) So if grounding the fuel wire doesn't work for you, try grounding it through a resistor between 30 and 500 ohms.
Thanks again for the video. Here's my experience with my 1984 Honda Magna V65.... My MPH setting is more accurate by playing with the numbers, rather than following the instructions. I programmed in 818, much better than diameter / the 3 magnets that I'm using. Also, I set it for 2 cylinders instead of my 4, and followed your advice and wired into the blue wire of the pulse generator. Thanks again
blue wire on my cdi on my yamaha worked too
I have also Honda 125, it's also blue wire and 2cyl instead of one.
where did you get the 818 from if you don't mind?

👍 HELLO I HAVE MADE A SIMILAR VIDEO : ua-cam.com/video/SqlIyr1mmeE/v-deo.html
I believe the "oil sensor setting" is actually the fuel sensor setting. One of the setting full=0 another empty=0. depends on your bike fuel sensor.
Thanks man, it worked! A bit bouncy but it worked. Have not ridden the bike yet but at neutral it responds.

dimecitycycle has some acewell brand cables that convert cable speedos to electronic. Probably have one you could adapt.
Drugfree1987, FYI, in your video at 5:55, the 1 is for your gas tank resistance from 1=100 ohms to 5 =500 ohms and not your engine size.
Yes. Thank you. I do know about that now. But back when I made the video the speedometer was very new to the market and had a lot of very misleading info. And that was one of the main reasons I made the video.

Should check this guy out he has diagrams figured out for this gauge and how to set it up with its menus

Nice vid, for wiring the the indicators on the gauge, should I follow the wire diagram for my bike, to where I need to splice the ground and power or do I just connect it straight since the gauge has its on power and ground?
Holy hell, get yourself a soldering iron

I hooked my rpm wire to the top front coil input closest to the neck and it works great
Mine. was purple
Leon Davis what are your colors
Np brother
William what did you use to keep the magnets on disk or rim?
Michael Brown i just stuck them to the brake disc bolt heads. im sure you could glue them
How far from center did you mount the magnet? Trying to figure out how to set the speed but mine is way off. Did you use 2 magnets or just one?
I purchased one of these, the instructions are not great, the wiring colours and connections are correct except for the black wire in the 9 pin connector which is listed as "Electric Door Lock" strange for a Motorcycle gauge, it should read Ignition power or power when ignition is on.
Also to get into the settings you have to hold the settings button and then powerup, continue holding until the settings mode is entered. easy way to work out circumference of wheel is mark the tyre and floor then roll the bike forward until mark on tyre comes back to floor mark and measure between.
Helpful vid, what did you put in for the speedo numbers, the info I have seen says the circumference of the tyre, in my case 120/70 17 is approx 1860mm but you can only put in 3 numbers! Do you have to put in the amount of magnet pickups? The oil sensor is the fuel sensor 1=100 Ohms and 5=500 Ohms depending on the sender you have in the tank.
+The Alchemist I still haven't dialed in the speedo yet. but I'm using both magnets. right now I think its at like 777 and its off by a few mph
+DRugfree1987 But then 777 is way off from 1860 how have you got to this number? I could do with understanding this, where have you fitted your magnets, how far are they away from the spindle?
+The Alchemist The wheel circumference divided by number of magnets, if you have 1 meter circumference and two magnets you have 1000mm / 2 = 500mm. I have 5 magnets on mine so for me the same circumference would be divided in 5 = 200mm
Hi DRugfree1987! Great video, I found the same speedo and want to mount it on a Honda CM400. May I ask you what tires you have on your bike? I'm absolutely in love with them, but can't find brand and model to see if I can buy them for my CM400. Thanks!
Does it possible to install this dashboard on my Kawasaki ER5 Twister 99' ?
Thanks for this video, very helpful!
👍 HELLO I HAVE MADE A SIMILAR VIDEO : ua-cam.com/video/SqlIyr1mmeE/v-deo.html
Iam delivered with one speed sensor only. How do i feed the circumference of my 18inch rims???what is unit value, mm or inches?
veda E how fix a problem? please help me
Hey everyone,
Just bought the same speedometer but are having problems with installing it. Headlight and turnsignals works fine on the display but there is no light on the display (its totally dark). It is connected directly to the battery. Any suggestions?
The fuel sensor has two wires. What is the correct way to connect the speedometer to this sensor? I can not get him to walk.
Thank you mate! :)
I have a 2002 HD 883 Hugger , I have blinkers, N, running lights , High Beams, can't get tach to work or speedometer to work, help..
lost me on the battery light.... when it gets below 20 volts? hmmm... nice video though... wished I had a better view of the how you hooked up the mph sensor... thanks for posting the video... the price has dropped to about $26 on ebay,I think I'll buy one...
I meant to say 12volts.
hello from the video you see you've wrapped a black cable to the spark plug cable. Where did you get connected? on speedmoteter? thank you
I have installed this on my single cylinder motorbike but accidently i pressed in setting and now i have only two options 2 & 4, how to get back to 1? Is there any full reset option?
hello I bought it. but I have a problem I can not put the engine speed, it works everything else belonging tours ... I have a transal XL600 ... how can I solve my problem? thank you
How do you get the gas gauge to work when your gas sensor has 2 wires ?
Hi I just bought this speedometer and the eBay seller didn't include full instructions. Your video has helped with some of my questions, but now I'm curious about the margnets. The speedometer sent to me has three magnets. Does the speedo use all three or are they sent as spares?
Justin Duncan of I remember correctly. to get it set up right you have to measure the wheel in mm. then if you have 2 magnets you will then divide that number by two. and if you use three magnets you divide it by three that's how you get the number you need to put in the tach for wheel size. that helpef
It is like DRugfree says, BUT! the more magnets you use the faster will the gauge respond to changes in speed, I have 5 magnets om my bike
If you connect the tach wire to orange and white wires on Honda the tach will start to work.
Problem has already been fixed. See me link at the 5 second mark of the video
So if your bike does not have a gear indicator does that mean gear indicator on speedo wont work? I have a 250 cc bobber.
Hi guys, I just purchased this speedo and my only concern is the wiring for the gear indicator, it mentions that N, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 are "NEGATIVE GEAR CONNECTION", so I assume it must ground to activate that gear number, but my motorcycle (Vento Tornado 250cc) only sends ground on N while all others are voltage... do I need to build relay fixes for each wire or does this device work with this configuration? Thanks in advance
Sur le connecteur de 9 bornes, le bleu claire pour le clignotant de droite, le orange pour le clignotant de gauche, le bleu foncé pour le plein phare,
le blanc et marron pour la veilleuse, le jaune et noir pour le compte tour, le vert pour le négatif ou masse, le noir pour le positif,le rouge pour le positif permanent et le bleu et blanc la jauge de carburant.
Sur le connecteur de 6 bornes, le vert et rouge pour le point mort, et les 5 autres pour indiquer les rapports.
Sur le connecteur de 1 borne indicateur de le 6 iéme rapport.
Sur le connecteur de 3 bornes, uniquement pour la rotation de la roue, c'est l indicateur de vitesse.
lu sa va je vouler savoir si tu avais fait un tuto pour les branchement jarive pas à faire marcher le compte tour et sa m'affiche pas la bonne vitesse quand je roule à tu une solution stp merci
salut, tu es bien en kms par heure et non en miles? pour le compte tour, tu branches le jaune et noir sur une bobine d allumage.
ok merci beaucoup tu aurai pas fait un tuto du montage complet par hasard ???
j'ai le même soucis, avez vous trouvé une solution ?
I have some doubts DRugfree1987 - The tacho/speedo I got, has a very short rpm cable. Can I use some other cable to link it and then wrap it around the spark plug cable?
2nd - Is there a way to change the firing cycle? .5, 1 or 2? like 1 pulse per 2 revs, 1 pulse every rev (wasted spark) ... that way. Is there a way to change it?
Just a quick question, do you know if the Acewell digital conversion speedo cables would work with one of these so you can get away from mounting all the stuff on the wheel/caliper?
how big is the diameter of the speedometer? thanks
mine rpm 'die off' after working for 2 weeks only and the rpm also doesnt accurate(1cyl engine)..about the speedo have you guys get the presice speed?mine not...even i put 4 magnet for also the same..speed doesnt accurate..😥
I'm wondering if you have the wiring colour coding figured out? I have the same gage and I have an older which has a pink wire and no purple wires. Any wiring help would be greatly appreciated
ive got the same clock but cant get the gears to show. i connected the wires up from my old clock put them to my new one but wont work any advice cheers
All good and working, just confused over the wheel diameter. Do i just measure the rim or rim plus tyre?
Angus Foster should be wheel including tire
I lost the magnets. Can i replace them with any magnets? Or i need a specific magnet?
If my bike revs up to 12,500/ 13,000 would that damage the tach?
I’m a bit late to the party on this one. However, I am hoping to confirm that these external speedometers not only come with display units but also are supplied with the necessary equipment to calculate the speed of the bike i.e. magnets that attach to the wheel and the fork to work out the speed?
Also, does anyone know if these are road legal in the UK?
Thanks

Oops and there blz? Man, I'm assembling this panel on a Moby and I'm having trouble getting the rpm to work, when I turn on pin 9, which is the rpm signal wire to the positive of the cdi, it doesn't work, but if I disconnect the CDI wire but leave it connected the coil only on the panel, when I pull the string to make contact the pointer moves, but if I connect it (coil wire and panel) to the cdi the pointer does not move. Can you help me? The cdi is grounded on the board and the panel is connected to the battery negative, if I ground the battery negative on the Moby board of the short, I don't know if it has to do with the non-functioning with the negative of the panel n being grounded TB in the board as the one from the cdi. Can you help me?
i have motocycle used that speedometer but rpm not working....can you give me solution ??? please
having trouble with the sensor can you help me where to connect the 3 wire
I have an 84 VT700 (Shadow). I'm tempted to cut down and run without a dash at all, but perhaps you can help me out a little. Did you connect diodes between every dash indicator light (turn, oil pressure, neut., etc)? I have the colored wire that matches up fine with the wiring diagram in the speedo, but there is also what seems like a negative for every colored wire. Neutral light for example has a G/R but there is also a Br/B on the original wire diagram but there is nowhere to put the Br/B. Do I need a diode between the two or how exactly do I wire it up?
Cody Alfar I'm not sure about your case but I did not need diodes for my install.
Hello thank you for the video but how did you do to plug the account turn its not walking on my motorcycle thank you
hello i hawe a problem my rpm meter dont show a right when its working , its shows to mach ,when its works wery minimal its show 4000 rpm , can you tell me
how to set number of cilinders 2 , ? i think now its standing to 4
Nice video. I have this gauge and I like it very much. But I have a triple and the tacho is adjustable for 2 or 4 cylinders only and rpms doesn't shows correctly for me :(
you can fix that by taking signal from two cylinders. But then you have to use one diod for each to prevent the signal from one coil to trigger the other. the diod only lets signal pass thru one way
thanks! I'll try it :)
Hi. please clould you tell me the input signal specs to the fuel indicator? i try to may ways but it doesnt works. Thanks a lot.
I have a problem with the wire colors. Anybody can point out which wire is for the RPM?
Hi! De speedo works pretty well. But the rpm doesn't work at all and the odometer is so wrong.... In 10 km mark by GPS the gauge marks 18 km.... And I was thinking that my bike was doing great economy on fuel... Lol
This gauge looks so good but from all the reviews it seems to be a nightmare to set up. Thanks for sharing.
Is it possible to use one bike's speedo on another bike? I really hate my ninja 250r's speedo and hoping the zx's can be used on my bike.
How many magnets did you use for the speedo?
hey i have a question, is this universal speedometer compatible with a single cylinder 200 cc bike ?
good morning sir i hope you ok i have problem to set up my speedo.how to set up also my rpm don work i have harley sportster
wow thank for making this video
*Only 18* 👇👇👇

Any bar mounting brackets for a Yamaha Raider for this gauge?
keep sharing po
s it true this does not come with TRIP functionality in it?
how did you mount the speedo i have same one and having trouble thinking of a way to mount it
Hello, I have wrapped rev counter purple/black wire around bobina cable but the neadle is very unstable.
+Jack Postma I'm having the same problem at this moment. once I sync the carbs ill try and figure out the problem were both having.
+DRugfree1987 Okay, thanks, if I found solution I let you know.
How to stop my fuel gause flashing?
DRugfree1987 Hi Mate, i am connecting same unit onto my gl650 honda. I've noticed that your shift position says 6 while mine is 0. I havent connected any whites and my bike isn't meant to have shift position sensor. So i thought if I but a universal one from ebay, would it work.
Basically, im wondering how you made gear indicator to work?
kr
pasha
Hi, do you have installation instructions in Portuguese? I have a cbf 125 thank you
Hey thank you so much for this video, one question though, what color wire did you use for the rev counter? I can't get mine to work either. Thanks!
+Mitchell Jn Baptiste its the purple wire. then wrapped it around the spark cable.
+DRugfree1987 no problem, thanks I will try it. Safe riding!!!
+Mitchell Jn Baptiste Im not an expert or anything, but i read somewhere that tach signal wires are connected to the negative of the coil...
+Melvin Jerremiah Gepte I heard that a well, have not tried it, I will though because it's not responding very well. If not i will just leave it bouncy lol. Thanks
ive done that and it doesn't work.
Hi, I'm bought this speedometer for my yamaha yb125sp, everything seems right but I can't figure out how to make the rpm work? Could you please help me?
kiên trịnh hi bạn, bạn đã xử lý được phần báo tua chưa? Bạn mua ở đâu và giá bao nhiêu thế?
Any one else's speed erratic with this speedo. Mine does nutts after 30mph. Wheel circumstance set correctly.
How did you hook up the gear indicator to the oil sensor?
Did the magnet fly off when you drove it?
Hi friend!
do you know to setup the originals KMs or MPMs before painel instal?
Hello, will you be helping me? How baglayacag the speed of cable?
My speedometer is always showing 199km/h, anyone got the same issue or have an idea to fix that ?
Hi just wanna ask how did you make the battery indicator work? What wires did you connect it too?, Because mine is not working. When turning the key on it won't lit up with the rest of the speedometer..
i think it's the one he wired to the battery. It's in line with plus and mass on the plug. In the manual it's called battery cathode.
how dou you calibrate the magnets? i got probs with mine ,please help!
I have the chinese speedo. How do I set tire science? My front rim is 21". Anyone know the setting?
could you please tell me where u used that magneticks for speedometer
Got it to go threw every gear but it won’t recognize first
Hey maybe you could help me out or someone in the comments with a nighthawk 550 or 650, so I have the speedo wired up and everything works on the speedo, the only problem I am having is that when I turn the bike it turns on and runs for a little but then turns off, after it turns off it doesn’t turn back on. I’m not sure what it is, I grounded all the ground wires but I left the black and striped brown wires lose, I found that they were positive wires but I have no idea where they go. So my question really is what are the black and brown positive wires on your bike and where did you connect them to?
