Does anyone have one of these they might want to sell? I think they were only on European bikes back in '72, so I guess they're pretty rare... I'd be happy to swap a fully refurbished MPH H2 speedo as part of the deal. Thanks Paul |

That works out OK JP.....when you trade it in you get more $$ because the mileage looks lower!!

.......and NO-ONE, not even the Experts can tell me the exact difference between an early H2 kph/mph speedo. Is the gearing difference in the speedo, or the external gearbox? I have a couple of early speedos that I took apart and mixed up eons ago, (I know, I know!!) It is not the green paint, at least not on early H2's....

I have both, unassembled, in the same box! |

If one exists anywhere in the world! |
