Dave,

Have you tried a guy called Popeye from France?

Or can you not get a MPH one and then get a vinyl KPH sticker made and fitted?

I will ask a few guy's I know in Belguim.........

I guess this case is already closed. Anyway, find a photo attached.

There's old speedo that I took from a wreck in Finland about 25 years ago. I don't offer it because there's pitting, rust, and marks on edge. Old Triumph Kph speedos like this used to have a sticker on the glass: "IMPORTANT ..." . I can't read the smallest letters ;)

Cheers,
JS

I think it is same as the 'mph' speedo - is it not the reference to how to zero the distance on the trip recorder?
