[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 125929, member: 60"] Does anyone have any experience of Acewell speedometers? this was set up a year ago on my Egli Comet when I rebuilt it. I have not had a good speedometer reading it seems mostly to just show 1 or 2 MPH and I know I am not that slow! I have checked the pickup and the magnets and the distances between which are correct) and when I started to run the engine in around the local roads I kept trying to find a cause but then I just gave up. I have just got round to checking everything out as the bike has sat in my garage for a year and I am thinking of selling it at auction and 18 miles is hardly an accurate measure to quote! Putting it on the lift I noticed that the lead from the sensor is long (I suppose for rear wheel applications) and I had coiled it round behind the headlamp in a lazy 7" or 8* diameter coil (aprox two turns) would that have caused my problem? all the other applicable functions, winkers etc work OK and I have the same type of unit on my trail bike and that works OK [ATTACH type="full" alt="1597765805651.png"]36789[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="1597766982957.jpeg"]36790[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
