plus I set the speedo to 187 or 186 for wheel size and I use those speed radar signs to check my speed to see if its correct. As for your 16 inch wheels I am not sure if what to do

I did the same thing but I have cateye

Have you checked the accuracy with a GPS? Just curious how far it is off, or if it is off at all.

At first I was kinda disappointed with the performance of the Acewell speedo, but now that I've had a chance to finish the wiring, setup the speedo magnet and sensor, and program the unit, I'm pretty happy with it, especially the price.
Pic of Acewell magnet epoxied to rim, sensor is tie wrapped inside the fender parallel to the rim/magnet.

Its' an Acewell digital speedo/tach/odometer/computer.

I got it from electrosport.com for $119.00usd Model# 2803

Also has dual trip odometers, clock, bar and numeric tach readout, hours runtime (resettable) and total hours, max rpm, max speed and avg speed!

GSXR front end, ZX9 brakes, Acewell speedo, carbon fiber Buell fairing and boat starter button

...since the suspension mods. Didn't go too far, my little home made exhaust can is way too loud (ya I know I'm gettin old), and I haven't set up the Acewell speedometer. It doesn't feel at all like the same bike, the handling is quicker but stable, falls into corners like my old Velocette used to and stands back up rolling on the throttle. Big surprise was how smooth the ZX6 rear brake and the Tokico 6 piston calipers are, lots of stopping power but very prgressive feel. The suspension is vastly superior to the old forks.
Decided I really didn't like the look of the wrapped pipes so that came off today, sanded and repainted them with the old standby, VHT header paint.
It's resplendent with it's firecracker red body work and green wheels. Eventually it will be black with those lovely green wheels.
Surprisingly, doesn't look like anything needs to be adjusted or changed right away. Can't get the neutral light working with the engine running, but never had one before until this bike. Trash canned the Buck Rogers dash on the tank, the gas gauge wasn't accurate anyway.
Overall I'm very pleased with it and my Ducati lust has subsided for now. The bike feels much smaller and lighter now. I upped the gearing from the 15/41 it was with the 630 setup to 17/41 530 conversion and it still pulls hard.
It really didn't cost a fortune, really just a lot of back and forth between the machine shop and the bike wreckers, and the results are like night and day. I'm not real impressed with the Acewell tach - It's plugged right into the stock harness and it's jumping back and forth 1000rpm at idle. can't really see it riding anyway. I hope the speedo works.
Sorry no pics, wife's gone out and took the camera, maybe tomorrow.
I'm thinking about putting a steering damper on, and distant plans call for a GSXR aluminum subframe and solo track seat to further carve off weight, and change to a coil rear shock. Maybe change the mirrors, add some LED marker lights, eventually fix that cam cover leak and come up with another muffler without spending the ridiculous prices they're asking for exhaust cans - have you ever taken one apart? - perforated tube wrapped in fiberglass in a snappy looking aluminum tube. That's it. $300, I don't think so. Automotive resonators look promising...

Wired up my Acewell speedo/computer and found my Neutral light is only works with the ignition on, but goes out when the engine is started. To complicate matters, or maybe to clarify, my warning light stays on. I had to disable the clutch switch by cutting off the switch tab because the engine would cut out with the clutch released.
I do believe there was some creative wiring going on before I got this bike!
Looks like the neutral light is tied into the warning/sidestand/clutch switch circuit - any ideas how I can isolate it (wire straight from the neutral switch to the warning light?). Thanks

oh...its better then a bicycle speedo wolf...oh how I want one...

Is that speedo for a bicycle? I just got one by cateye and I don't know what to set the wheel size as. As for attaching the magnet I would just silicone that sucker on or probably epoxy
