Hello, is it possible to swap an early speedometer on to a 1982 kz1000 Ltd? 80 mph just isn’t enough! Thanks

You can use any mechanical Kawasaki speedometer, the problem is finding one that fits. KZ & other Kaw speedos come in various diameters.

My mistake. forgot that his 1000 doesn't have the typical KZ speedometer & he has a different speedo drive unit at the wheel.

ps: the most likely place to check is EB.UK. just about every other country would have used KPH.
