Hi everyone,

Stuck with a silly one today, Im needing the speedo ratio of the above mentioned bike, now I have already tried the mark the wheel, spin it 1 turn and count the amount of turns on the cable but.... I seem to get a ratio of around 3:1, 3 being the cable, 1 being the wheel? but when i look up speedo's the only closest ratio i can find is 4:1 or 2:1.

So heres what i really need, What friggin one do i go for?

Thanks in advance! Thumbs Up

I always thought they were 4:1, but I may be wrong. 3:1 does seem odd for a Honda, though. Thinking

I was under that impression aswell from reading through various manuals, Im thinking i will stick a 4:1 on and take it for a run with the gps
