I bought one of the full size speedos from mikes (the electronic kind). from what I've fathomed, they use a wire sending unit thats attached to a bolt and some replacement bolts for the disc brake and this sending unit bolt gets a signal from the replaced bolts on the disc brake as the wheel turns and shows the speed on the speedo.
Now I'm trying to install this thing and I'm so confused. I emailed mikes for instructions and they said to replace the bottom caliper bolt with the sending unit bolt. Tried this but the sending unit bolt is way too big and the holes on the forks are not threaded and this bolt is completly threaded. Even if it did fit, the bolt is not going to line up with the bolts on the disc.
Does anyone have this speedo on their bike????? I dont even see a way in which this would work.
