Title: What's the go here - Are these variations known.
Post by: Totgas on December 10, 2013, 07:05:12 PM
Found both images when doing some research and don't believe they have been photoshopped. Has anyone come across these at any time?

If you are referring to the speedo, then they are of a standard bike and a police bike. Police bike speedo is in 2kper increments.

If you mean the extra digital things on the upper shroud, then its a one off..

The RH image speedo could be off an English Police bike as it's graduated in miles/hour.

I was referring to the lights for the blinkers in second one. Have never seen this on an ST1100 - Is it a really early or ABS model?

Must be an early model, as its not on the later ones.

The 2kper increments are so that the speedo can be accurately calibrated at regular intervals.
It's the simplest way to check if a vehicle is ex HWP although now they use GPS for check speeds.

Some of the police and emergency services in the UK used ABS models, so that is probably one of them on the right.  ABS models have the indicators lights in a different spot to non-abs, probaly due to the extra warning lights on abs models.
