Can I put a speed sensor magnet on Katana counter sprocket and get a proper reading?

They're meant for the front tire rotor, as it uses the wheel size in it's calculation.Originally posted by 1100 View Post'92 GSX1100F Red/Maroon -

You can modify the front sprocket bolt to use the Bandit 1200 sprocket cover & pick up sensor. You'll also need a newer speedometer what uses the electro signal. I only know of one person thats done it. As far as I know, he had a machinist customize the front sprocket magneto from a B12. I think he just had the machinist weld and grind to adapted the Bandit 1200 piece. No, he didn't do a write up
. If I'm not mistaken, he explained the process to be just that simple, atleast for that part of the mod. Then you have to find a way to adapt the speedo cluster. The Katrider forum member I'm referring to goes by the name: thebird 19.
If you do it, you open up a whole new world for doing front fork and 17 inch rim swaps.Last edited by katanarider; 09-05-2015, 08:55 AM.My Katana-1100 17" wheel swap
