[murp]

hi

sure ive seen this somewhere on here, but cant find it....my 4l0 350 lc speedo is reading miles per hour but the odometer is going round too fast.... i'm sure it is reading in kilometers... is there a fix for this....

thanks

What has probably happened is that someone has put new decals on a kph speedo so it reads mph but still records km.
There is nothing you can do except change the internals.

I bought an XJ650 speedo and used the internals, they fit.

I *think* that this one will fit www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-XS650-clocks-Speedo-and-Rev-Counter-/130929875083?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts_13&hash=item1e7c07588b
Just take the speedo internals (including dial) out of the XS casing and install them into your LC casing.

I did exactly this, XS550 clocks
Watch how you take the needle off! You need to mark the stop position and watch where the needle goes. They ping off !
Fairly easy job

Ping off and snap pretty easily if you don't watch out.

Thanks for the replys. That speedo in the link is a 140 mph one. Don't really want one of those. My lc has a 120 mph max Speedo. I thought there was a way to change the gearing of the mileometer, but maybe just imagining I seen that somewhere. Cheers though. :-)

Fit these internals

If you don't like it with the KM as well as mph then fit the face off your mph one.

Keep looking around, I used one off an XJ650, they have the exact same internals as an LC.
This one in fact www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360664898380?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I have the same problem, waiting for a set of LC clocks to come up on eBay, then a bank loan to buy em!
