Odometer disconnect?
a fellow biker in our local club recently bought a series 1 fz6 with full service history up to 18000 miles
unfortunately he had a crash - him and bike are OK - but he had fairing/slight frame/bars/forks damage.
The bike is worth repairing but it needed a new speedo display/fairing bracket/fairing etc as they cracked/broke in crash.
He managed to get a second hand speedo but it is from a high miler with 26000 miles.

His question:
can you disconnect the speedo to stop adding more miles (this IS legal, but illegal to non-disclose to new buyer if he ever decides to sell) and if so how?

I am not sure but thought I would post to you technical folk out there who might be able to help

Re: Odometer disconnect?
You can get a state title with ODO descrep on it. Log original miles on speedo, and count from there on the new one as I understand it.

Re: Odometer disconnect?
You could disconnect the speed sensor, that yould stop the odometer and the speedometer. The question is, how will you know when you've ridden enough miles and can reconnect the everything?
