99 zx6r Kilometer Counter

Postby MrWasabi » Wed Jan 21, 2009 8:22 pm

Just a quick question to the people in the know how...
on these models, where is the kilometer counter connected to? the gear box or the front wheel?

so i want to know, where does the bike measure how far it has traveled...

AFIK, it should be from the countershaft sprocket......which is also fed to the speedo. ;)

no no, not wanting to remove it. saw an ad claiming that the bike has excessive amount of Kms on it cos the rear sprocket was changed. on mine that wouldnt do anything to the Kms as the sensor is in the front wheel... just dont know sweet FA about these to know if that was BS or not.

Thanks mate
