easiest found in a metric country.

metric speedos are not normally sold in the US, try ebay

you may also have concerns with installed mufflers, lighting or signals

check the lighting etc with the destination DOT

Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. Give us a clue! You're on an International forum here, where are you shipping to? Your local Harley dealers should be able to supply (you have the part number now!), but there may be other suppliers.

From what I've seen most of the speedos Harley-Davidson USA sells are available in both metric and imperial. Here is another one for the 2001. Click on the PDF in the link to find the metric part number.

Hi - I am calling you from New York US. I am trying to get a 2001 Road King KPH Speedo. It is difficult to get it in US. However, you may have MPH in the UK as well?

Best

Also from the UK, and you are right - also MPH here, but there are a number of members from France, Germany, Benelux and Scandinavia. Also there are loads of US service people based on the continent that do come on here.

Is it not just easiest for all concerned to discount the sale price by the price of a speedo and ship as is - saves the buyer a few pennies on import duty as well...

We also have mph speedos, but Canada is metric as is the rest of Europe. I know a Dutch source of Harley parts, where I got a combined mph/kph speedo from (for a shovel, believe it or not!) and they may be able to supply, but they won't ship to the USA. However if your customers are in Europe that is a possibility.

Be aware there is no such thing as a reasonable price for such things in my experience! They are jolly expensive. Canada is closest to you, but there are strange things going on even on your patch with shipping stuff across that frontier.

It seems perverse, but you may have better luck in the country you are shipping to.

I've bought 4 Harley's from the US and haven't changed a speedo, light, muffler, or anything.... I don't see why anyone would bother but seeing as I'm in Canada you might be exporting to another country that requires this.

The reason I took an interest in this thread is that in recent years my wife and I have started travelling in Europe. With an mph speedo in kph country and with speed limits being ever more tightly enforced, I reckon the time is right to do a little more than guess how fast we're going! Also in some countries an imported vehicle will probably be inspected before being allowed on the street, so that may be why jemosand wants to do this.
