Hello to all, my first post cos I’ve been riding too much. Love this little RD250LC I bought a week or so ago.
First question, what’s the easiest way to change the clocks for MPH, is there a specialist who can reset the odometer from 22k kms to 13k miles?

It can be done...can't recall by whom but it may well be cheaper to get a UK speedo. Simply resetting it to zero miles (or kilometres) means opening the clock up. Fairly simple, I've done it so it must be! If you don't mind the mileage in KMS you can just buy a new MPH dial face.
Welcome in matey.

I've done a few, it is a bit fiddly and will still require a new clock face. Hardest part is finding the correct gearing to fit in.

No need if you just want to see how fast you're going, the mph overlay will be accurate if it's just pasted on top of the kph one. Of course, the odometer will actually be km's not miles, but I don't think anyone cares what mileage is shown on a 30yr old bike.

Or send to Simon wells (kateannwells- on eBay) the seller whose selling the decals/faces and get him to do it - just like I did👍 Super nice guy If you break the needle there difficult to source as the ones I found didn’t fit

As already said cheapest/easy change clock face to mph the odometer working in kms doesn't bother me personally

Simon Wells does replacement faces which allow the backlight to work properly. PM me if you want is mobile number. He did have some original MPH faces available when I last spoke to him.
