Daytona Rev counter in Lambretta speedo body

[Leo]

Spent a few lonely hours converting a Daytona speedo, rev counter, odometer to fit into a series 1 Lamby speedo case. The rev counter is the sweep round the outside. Middle display can be trip meter, odometer or rev counter in digits. lower display is speedo.

Its powered of a 12v DC circuit as are all the lights etc. I fitted a keyed ignition so the speedo unit can be turned on and off not to drain the battery.

Took a bit of head work but got there in the end, You can't just fit the original speedo case as the brass gear and throttle rollers are too close together for the full diameter of the original speedo body to fit between.

A series 2 would have been a hell of a lot easier in that there is more gap for the various wires to go from the headset to the chassis and there is more room in the headset for fuses and the wires from the keyed ignition.

few photos, just got it to calibrate now.


I've got a film of the rev counter working but cant load it on here.
