What model is this speedo for ?
What model is this speedo for ?
The dial reads W=1.144.
My best guess is /6 or /7 era but I've also been told it is from a R80. Perhaps there is a chart on the internet somewhere that identifies the various speedo codes and ratios ?
if anybody can kindly point me in the right direction that would be great.

I've spent countless, late night hours down the rabbit hole of Snowbum's incredible site but never saw that chart.
Thanks !!

Re: What model is this speedo for ?
That unit is identical to the one on my 1975 R 90/6 (with sidecar), right down to the W 1.144 number etched on it. Well - except yours is in way better shape. My speedometer is still accurate, however my tach is toast. I pulled the cable off of it as it was making wretched noises and didn't have a needle anymore.
I could provide a good home for that unit, provided your price is reasonable.
