speedometer with r1 front end?

well i was thinking bout how i was going to run a speedometer after i put my 99 r1 fronte end on. i did some checking and the r1 uses a sensor from one of the transmission gears to determine speed. Anybody got any ideas on how i can hook up a speedo?

im not necessarily worried about what speedometer im going to use, but more how i am going to hook one up. like where i am going to read from since the r1 determines speed by using a sensor in the trans.

did you read the spec's on the speedo's jordan?

they all use speed sensors calculated by a magnetic bolt in front rotor.

i really like some of those koso guages. What i really want is if they would just make a simple one with a digital speedo, and a tach with a needle, shift light, and none of all that other crap
