Gen 1 odometer to kms?
« on: 04 July 2017, 02:37:48 pm »
All right chaps and chapettes,

I have a UK market bike in Ireland (2005 Gen 1 FZS), with the speedo in km/h and the odometer in miles.

Is it possible to switch the odometer to kilometres too?

I have a PDF of the manual and function isn't mentioned.

I can set the clock with the Select and Reset button at the same time option, but nothing seems to get you into the ODO functions.

Cheers,

LD

if its a Gen 1 that has analogue clocks. The fact that the main scale is in Km tells me someone has changed the dials so you are unlikely to be able to change the odo to Km

Thanks mate.

They are the analogue clocks with the digital sub-displays.

The speedo definitely reads in km/h, so I think it is more than just a fascia change. Just seems a bit odd that a UK bike would be km on the speedo with miles on the odometer.

Just change speed to mph easy to do less than £20. I did mine in white and now can see speed at a glance, so much better than black. Just msg them and tell them you want mph. Doesn't take long to do.  http://www.cartestsoftware.com/fz1/whitegaugegraphics.html

Thansk for that, but its the other way I need to go.

It's a UK market bike that was imported to Ireland by the previous owner.
We have km speed limits, so I'd like the speedo and odometer to be in km.

There is no option, or hidden menu, to switch the odometer to km (at least to my knowledge). Only way is to re-program the eeprom inside the cluster. If you manage to get hold of such a programmer I can provide you the according hex-file/data.

Right you are.

Will see what the possibilities are .

The previous owner probably changed the facia dial to get the KMH scale as the primary scale. The digital display will still be in miles and you cannot change that.
