    Pictures of speedos you guys use! Currently mines standard however may go electronic . As the threading on my standard one isn't very good. Possibly a previous owner tampering with it?
    The mileage seems to tally up from mots.
    She's on 12.5K miles
    What do you guys think?

      I think most of us chose the vapor units.

        @Calum thanks Callum just been looking at your build!
        I must say your using quality parts, which is what I'd do, I wouldn't touch a mat aka or whatever there called lol unless someone can somehow convince me.
        Hope you get it sorted soon. I do worry about spending cash on mine as you never get it back and it goes quick when you start lol. also I keep thinking of doing a bigger test.
        Will always appreciate and love those small engine 2 strokes. So may just keep it forever if i can.

          @Bentley A good few of us have done our licenses, and keep these toys.

          Mitaka make good parts, don't be so quick to snob them off. When my DT got nicked, I was on a budget and needed it fixed. I ran Mitaka after the feckers thrashed the hell out of my bike with no oil. It lasted a good few years, I swapped it our for Wossner, even though it was still in very good condition.

              I stuck a mitaka piston in my KTM SX 125 and although it had less compression (as i likely got the wrong size), i had no issues with it and the bike still flew !

                Aye, but the Wossner ones are manufactured in China.

                Again never had an issue with either, but this isn't a highly strung engine. So it doesn't need to be hardcore.
