| Hope someone can help, a friend slid my bike down the road and smashed the clocks off, I have fixed her up but haven't got a rev counter on her, have used a universal speedo which works perfectly but since having no rev counter the bike will do no more then 60mph, it limits out on the revs. I would like to know if wireing any rev counter up to her will stop this as new superfour clocks are £600 new and can't find second hand ones anywhere, also it's getting a bit embaressing being overtaken by lorries :) My bike is a 1994 cb400 superfour. |

| yer as said theres a circuit in the speedo which restricts the bike to 180kmh by cutting out 2 of the cylinders when it reaches that speed. The way that the circuit is wired up having no speedo(and no restrictor circuit) means the ecu thinks the bikes doing 180kmh all the time so only runs 2 cylinders. There are a couple ways of sorting this but i will not go into it here, there are many previous posts on how to do this just do a quick search. |

If your still looking for a set of SF clocks, I can get a used set from Japan and they're a lot cheaper than over here. |

at the CDI or ECU , you need too source two wires. First the BROWN/BLUE STRIPED wire cut it. Then a BLACK/WHITE wire you need too remove a small amount of the plastic insulation. Then solder a 2k ohm resistor ( 20p from maplins)fomr the bared BLACK/WHITE wire too the BROWN/BLUE STRIPED wire at the CDI END !!!not he loom side, then away you go
