Well basically I bought a speedo off ebay
For an ABSOLUTE steal of a price! (£15!!)
AND ITS BRAND NEW!
The speedo has:

Well... A speedo
Neutral light
Indicator warning light
Light indicators
Gear indicator
And maybe a rev counter?

So my question to you is how do I go about wiring this up?!
Can anyone find any info on it atall?

Also the gauge does have connectors on it but I will eat my hat if they are the correct ones.

Thats pretty tasty to be honest .... got a link to the seller?


Ok you might have a wiring diagram for the speedo or if you are really lucky it will just plug and play with your old sockets... though I bet it doesn't, so what you have to do is look at the wiring diagram for the speedo then cross reference with the wiring diagram for your said bike (comprehensive list of diagrams on this forum somewhere) then just use connectors to connect the corresponding wires together.

Looks like its going to be a digital reader for the speed so if you have a cable speedo you are... erm.. not sure ... best of luck

If its for the Hornet in your sig the connectors look identical.

Sadly if yours is a 98-02 its a cable driven speedo. Could be fun Laughing

Yeah it is indeed - the connectors do look farmiliar.
And you are also correct for the cable driven part -
Fortunetly my speedo is acctually more or less intact -
But the bike has no rev counter or warning lights (thats all that i needed) And the gear indicator will be kinda cool.
Im gonna go out in a bit and have a Butchers' - see what its all about!
Also I checked the sellers listings - he didnt seem to be selling any more - Auction here I think ive just managed to snag myself an absolute bargain!
