Adam88 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hey there , recently got myself an R6 which was an import I believe as log books says first registered over seas, the clocks are on kph and I can't find how to change them to mph? I've searched online and some say do this and do that while others say you can't on certain imports ? I've tried to hold down select which someone said on YouTube do but that don't do anything ? Just wondered if anyone could shed some light on this how to change or I've I need a new part etc where would I purchase from ? Thanks in advance many thanks Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joeman Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 If the bike can't do it, get a Speedo healer.https://www.healtech-electronics.com/products/sh/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 have you tried holding both buttons down for 5 seconds or more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam88 Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hey yeah tried that didn't no anything apart from changing the clocks That speedo healer think gonna have to purchase ain't to bad for price either tbf, I can see the mph sign in background next to the kph but imagine all bikes will have that then certain country's have there's fixed on kph or mph but read Canadian bikes can't change kph to mph either, would like to know where my bike was first registered lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 apparently you just press the select button for more than one second and it should change To find the country of origin you would need to look up the vin and find what number or letter corresponds to which country! some bikes are easy some are a pain in the arse to work out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam88 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Hey thanks for replys I've followed the videos and still no luck so speedo healerv4 it is lol! I searched for the guys name who had the bike before as only 1 owner and he's American but pretty sure based on Germany then South Korea so bike gotta come from either one lol! I managed to get a pic of the bike when he had it just can't figure out what letter it is next to he's number plate looks more German than a South Korean plate lol il upload Can't see rear indicators either lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat73 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 it can be done .. but it requires altering connections on the PCB .. opening the back and using a soldering iron .. but i don`t know which connections.... try google ...

Gerontious Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 It is definitely a german plate.. bike was registered at Bitburg. Rhineland-Palatinate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam88 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Ahhh sweet thanks mate nice to know where it started out and by looks of it he seemed to have looked after it think I have read that German r6s only have kph and can't change to mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 it can be done .. but it requires altering connections on the PCB .. opening the back and using a soldering iron .. but i don`t know which connections.... try google ... I would have thought it would have to be done in the EEPROM chip? But either way it can be altered internally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat73 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I would have thought it would have to be done in the EEPROM chip? But either way it can be altered internally the text on post went some thing like .. its the same unit for all bikes .. changes to kph/mph deg Fahrenheit or Celsius are made via connections on the pcb.. it then had a jpg. with marks on and a description of how to alter them ... basically cut some and join others..... again google will be you guide ...
