Vitesse box in p6 speedo inaccurate
Looking for a solution for vittese box in p6.
Speedo reading 30, I'm doing more like 45 mph..
Is there a quick change of drive size or do I need to get speedo out gor modifications?
Cheers
Chris

Re: Vitesse box in p6 speedo inaccurate
Is it cable or electronic ?
I think there are drivewheels with different numbers of gear pinion teeth ?
or if electric, which is easier, you can buy electronic correction boxes. Although it says not available...I'm sure there are others out there

Maybe electric only appeared on the SD1 I think ? Can't remember if it was electric or cable
Or give https://www.speedycables.com/ a shout

Hi
I've got mechanical drive, probably quite tricky to go to electronic system.
Thanks for the response and links.

Similar was available commercially a lot of years back for the mechanical speedo jap imports, to convert their kph speedo's to read mph.Clyde Archibald wrote: ↑Sat Aug 23, 2025 4:51 pm Thanks man. Interesting about the 3d printed gearbox

Re: Vitesse box in p6 speedo inaccurate
Speedy cables and Speedograph Richfield will do a 'correction gearbox' to go in the speedo cable.
Speedy cables probably your best bet.
Chris.
