Yeah, you can do much better than that!Timbo wrote:...on Sunday the speedo topped at 61mph (not completely flat out) and my sat nav recorded a top speed of 63.5 mph . Is this accurate enough or should I set it up better?
Just fine tune the speedo ratio setting, as I said mine was spot on at 0.77 on Bridgestone Hoops being squashed by my 14 stone! 
Not very realistic for a Lambretta Speedo, you need it to be reading at least 80 mph for a GPS 63.5?Timbo wrote:I haven't set up everything properlyyet. But on Sunday the speedo topped at 61mph (not completely flat out) and my sat nav recorded a top speed of 63.5 mph . Is this accurate enough or should I set it up better? Not done the milometer yet as I broke down....

Went through everything again tonight-you have to have really good connections to get everything working.
Hopefully this is a clip of the speedo working:-

Did anyone ha problems with thw speedo cable connetcion hitting the uppper part of the fork?
On mine GP italian handlebars, the nut of the cable that connect it with the speedo hits the forks and doesn't allow the handlebar cover to close completely.

Finished fitting the temp sender this morning-after much swearing and dremeling! Refitted the bridge, horn casing etc then fired it up and yep you guessed it-no longer working. I checked and rechecked all the connections at the headset redid numerous wires and bullets and sometimes it would work momentarily others not. Checked the earths on the frame checked the regulator but still nothing. It lights up the backlight so there's power and sometimes the display lights up (then freezes). Checking the SIP loom and there's no continuity on the red wire either side if their magic box of tricks?
I'm struggling to know what to check next but it is looking increasingly like it's their wiring not mine. Has anyone else had problems like this?
