looking at ordering a custom speedometer off ebay with a wheel sensor- since the front end im using down have one. ann it looks sweet has anyone used this?

Nice looking isn't it? I asked the seller if it would work on a KZ750E and the response I got back was that it was kilometers per hour only not suitable for U.S. I asked him if he has one that does MPH. Waiting to hear back. I'll post update when I do.

You can also use a ZX6/9/10/12 digital dash. Mount the speed pickup on a bracket attached to a caliper bolt so it will detect the brake rotor bolts. And a speed healer to make it accurate. I have a ZX10 dash for my 750 project, and a ZX12 for the ZX11 project, both are really light weight.

Sweet Steell. How did you hook up the RPM gauge just to the COILS? I've been wondering

cuz i know on cars u put it to the distributer?

Also send me some pics of the Digital dash you have on Bet it looks sick

i was just reading your post and i have been planning on the same type project. i really like how yours is turning out. I was just wondering though if all you had to do was get new bearings to fit and match the original stem and gxr forks? i actually have a 82 csr 1000 that i swapped a kz1100 j motor into and really need to find a set of forks and if your gxr ones worked great i might wanna go that direction myself. i appreciate any info. keep up the sweet project

Hey crarkota- I actually had to PRess out the GSXR Stem- an have my kz1000 Stem pressed into the GSX bottom Tree mount.. Doin so i had to have a LOCK Sleeve made- Due to the Difference in Stem Diameter- OD- an the ID of the Tree--- i know a machine shop that i brought the hole thing to.

just Make sure they make the sleeve so you have to PRESS the stem back in orelse it wont work..

I had the stem machined
an the rear swingarm Sleeves to match my Frame Bolt. only things ive had done to the bike i have not done myself-


Good luck Message me if you need any help-~ Anytime~

He is sold out of MPH models and does not know if he will be able to restock any. The factory that made them has moved.

oh bummer~ probably just go no tachs for a min. Im just cruisen around town to brake her in anyway- Ill wait it out. seems to be the best thing to do

thanks alot tho

hey thanks for the info. just wondering what you meant by LOCK space? and did the machine shop make your stem larger to fit the lower clamp or is that where the spacer comes in?

the machine shop actually pressed in a Spacer for the KZ stem to fit- but if you look at your orginal kz stem an kz bottom tree- There is a "catch Lip"? an on the stem there is a "Lock" Ring?

so what they did was made a spacer with an inner lip that would catch this Lock ring at the very end of pressing my kz Stem in..

hopefully that makes sense. sorry i dont have any pictures i was so excited to have it put it on right when i got home

but once you have the stem PRESSED in just buy some new bearings an it will all fit perfectly!!.


MY next step is welding stoppers on so my forks dont hit my tank. as well as a steering stablizer-
send me some pics of what you got if you need to. anymore questions throw them out!

Sounds good so far.
