Hi

I am a newbie with an AJS model 18, that needs a little help. I am trying to put a speedo on it. Where should I begin? Any ideas on what parts I need etc.

Thanks

Dan

It would help if you could tell us what year it is.

and you have no speedo or no drive or no what?
It can only fit on a bracket on the top yoke or in a hole inthe headlamp

hmm i can bolt it to the bars, but what I dont know how to fit is the drive.

Hi dan
Welcome to the forum. Can you post picturesof the appropriate areas or link to some?

bolting it to the handlebars is a recipe for disaster,
it is driven from the rear wheel, is there one?
If you post a pic or elaborate on your problem it would be a great help

yes thats the one! I will take some pictures at the weekend, and post them later.. Currently I dont believe there is a drive on the rear wheel, and it would have to be fitted.
