Does it look like a Lambretta speedo or a motorbike one?

what about the series 1 boys anything for them
Price will be about £70, as far as the s1 is concerned is that the same fitting as a s2, if so i may have posted it 2 above your post, do you not read man ;)

Been into shed tonight and the prototype speedo the gents at MB were kind enough to lend me is still hapilly diplaying despite the fact my GP has no battery and has not been started this year. When I scroll through the funtions it still knows my max revs, etc from last year.

Oh...and it still looks like a Lambretta (digital) speedo too!

Here is a question. when you buy one of these will it be possible to add mileage to it before you put in on the scoot? my engines got around 1500 on it at the mo and it would be good if you could add miles already done when fitting it, no more having to keep adding numbers on...

I now realise none of that made sense...to many ciders.. ;)

Aaaha, not a major issue i know but would be good if this was possible a one time re-set only going forward perhaps. Maybe version 2... :D

Ps Iain will be pre-ordering on monday, expect this will mean being in 2nd batch? If so got a rough idea how long that will be..?

Thats a shame that...nothing dodgy you understand Ian/Mouse just that the DVLA now put a red mark against mileage oddments and on an HPI check it comes up potentially dodgy.. :? , had it with my car one where it was obvious the Mot tester made a mistake on the mileage as the service backed it up but now the DVLA have put a black mark against it which could be awkward when I change it..

BTW how do you power the speedos..? do you need a battery feed guys..?
