Hi chaps,

Had a broken speedo cable on my military 110 - swapped it over for a new cable from Paddocks but it now reads ridiculous speeds which sadly I can't reach - as much as I would like too.

So I guess it's giving an mph reading on a Kmh dial? Is there a special cable for Kmh? I'm clocking up miles like no bodies business so it would be good to sort - I wish it could really do 120kmh - that would be swell!

Any help hugely appreciated

Cheers

120kph is 75mph. Certainly possible for a 110.

There are different speed drive cogs at the gearbox, you need it to match the speedo, the transfer box ratio and the tyre diameter.

Ha - not in my 110 it's not!
But thank you for the advice - I'll google speed drive cogs - are they easy to change?
Cheers

I'm not even sure what that is! Can you shed any more light?
