Smile Sport Glide 2018 Speedometer

I hope this hasn't been covered elsewhere as I did do a search. My speedometer seems to be only calibrated in MPH, although that is in the digital display of the speedo. The numbers around the dial go up to 210 so I am assuming that there is some way of changing from mph to kph. I can't find it in the owners manual. Anyone have any idea how to change it for a pending trip over the channel?

You live in the UK, you're bike was bought there presumable, your speedo apparently shows KPH in its digits. Yet the gauge says MPH. Does it seem like it's registering MPH or KPH when you ride it?

Yes, I live in the UK and the bike was bought here. I have checked my speed using gps / sat-nav so it registers mph.

Very strange. But I'll be a trip to the dealership (after calling ahead), would enable them to set it to KPH internally in the ECM.

Thanks for the reply. So it is not possible to change it myself?

I don't remember exactly what I did, but the first time I was resetting my odometer after a fill up I made my gauges register kilometers. I think I held in the reset button too long but I can't say for sure.

I don't know how to change it. But your owner's manual may tell you.

No clue how to change settings but speedo clearly shows MPH so for now you are on US measurements

That's the weird part. His speedo is clearly using kph numbers. Unless he's got a factory built Stage 6 that can actually do 210mph.
