Re: Triumph 3hw speedo gearbox rotation

Hi,
I believe someone here wrote some time ago that all Smith speedometers need a cable that turns clockwise, when it enters the speedometer.

Re: Triumph 3hw speedo gearbox rotation

Yes Indeed (Apart from some Royal Enfield's!!) At jumbles, I'll always check those M20 type that sit on the nearside hub. Turn the drive dogs clockwise and the cable drive should also turn clockwise.

Unfortunately 99% of the ones you pick up are the wrong rotation. Ron
