MPH to KPH (and back again)

Hi,

Does anyone know how to change the speedo to KPH? I'm going to France on Friday and that would be really handy. I will obviously need to change it back to MPH when I get back.

Thanks.

 

Hold down all 3 buttons for 2 - 3 seconds...

 

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Why is this not in the manual!!

 

I agree it should be, I learnt this my simply playing with all the buttons some years ago on my first trip to UK as my bike came with Kph...

Enjoy France and I will driving to Dunkirk tomorrow in the car as Im taking the kid over for 2 weeks to visit the Welsh clan

 

Thanks, it worked.

For anyone else reading, you hold down all 3 buttons and then when a number comes up, use the scroll button to select the right number and then hit set.

The numbers represent:

1 - Euro kph
2 - UK mph /mpg
3 - US mph /gallons

not sure if a US gallon is different from a UK one or if they don't use mpg (my dealer told me but didn't know the difference).

 

Yes, a US gallon is only 6 pints, so you get less mpg. Something to do with the measurements having been set in the time of Queen Anne,though why there different, I don't know. I'm sure there some history buff out there who tell us!Useful info on changing to kph though.Does it give fuel consumption in litres per 100kms?

 

There's a DaytonaBuff, but he knows bog all about history. Cheers for the info on MPH-KPH though!
