Speedometer adjustments

Hi all,

Is there a way to adjust the stock speedometer on a 1973 superbug for a different wheel size or do I need to get a new VDO gauge? (if that is also possible)

Thanks,

If you are very skilled as a watchmaker, you *might* take it all apart and adjust the spring tension:

won't affect the odometer reading however. You can order tiny gearboxes which will "correct" for tire size. I don't have a source.
