: Tachometer (Speed)
Hi,
I heared, that the tachometers from an amerikan zx-10r are not speedlimited. Does it, or not?
Can anyone does change/switch the tachometer from miles to km/h for testing it? Only, anyone have the possibility for doing this!
In Germany the tachometers don`t run over 299km/h!
Best regards,
SMY:wink:

Grease 07-08-2008, 11:24 AM As far as I know, US speedometers are limited to 186 or 189 mph.

garth285 07-08-2008, 11:33 AM I think on US models we can make it read above 189 is you get the speedo healer and make your gauge run in kph and then use the speedohealer to convert kph to mph. but i dont think you can do it that way since we only read up to 189.

The european part number is not as the same as the american part number. I looked in my dealers part list.
Where is the different? I hoped, it was the speedlimiter! :dontknow:

189MPH or 299KPH on a US speedo.
Thank you. Did you tested it?
luis.pita 07-08-2008, 02:53 PM i guess everyone did , except maybe for Luckz88 cause he rides a G1k in 1st gear only.
luis.pita 07-08-2008, 02:56 PM hes a ninny, auf Deutsch sagt man dumm lol
Ninjamaster 07-08-2008, 03:13 PM Thank you. Did you tested it?
Hell yes!:cool:
It's easier to test with lower gearing and no speedo healer, BTW.
chriswillis 07-08-2008, 04:42 PM Hi there.
Speedo WILL NOT read over 189 or 299 in kph. Speed will still increase as you can notice the revs still rising but will not read any higher than those figures stated. :)
luis.pita 07-08-2008, 04:56 PM yeah something like this

SPEEDFREAKZX10R 07-09-2008, 11:22 AM Strap a gps to your bike so you know how fas your really going. Speedos are highly inaccurate at high speed.
I know that, but its look funny, when the speedo takes over 299.
I like it!
After 299, my Maschine does put on over 1000/min

wah? dude what r u talking about?
Ninjamaster 07-09-2008, 04:04 PM wah? dude what r u talking about?
I think he's tryin to say he still has another 1000 rpm till redline when the speedo hits 299kmp. His speedo definately is not calibrated.

..As all other speedos too! Stock ones.
I was thinking long time ago how to "unrestrict speedo" (there is no restriction in cars, so why on bikes?). But sadly among many tuning things you can do to your bike, nobody makes speedo unrestriction...
And lets not speak about calibration, true gps speed, blablabla. I want to see 300+ kph on my bike (as on good old 2000 R1....)

Nope the speed limiter is not in the tach. All tachs can read mph and kph.
Ninjamaster 07-10-2008, 07:34 AM I don't know about the new GSXR's but I remember the early 2000's would say ERR when the speedo ran out of speedo fluid.:lol:
