I'm working on a front end swap. The new front end uses a 20mm axle. I'd like to keep the stock gauges, so I looked at bikes that use a 20mm axle and have a mechanical speedo drive.
If I get, say, a Kawasaki speedo drive do I have to use a Kawasaki speedo? Were speedometers and drive ratios standardized?
Do they differ within the same brand over the years. If I have early '70's Honda gauges, will a speedo drive from a late '80's-early '90's VFR have the correct drive ratio, for example?
