Author Message   Georgedombeck Posted on Wednesday, September 03, 2008 - 09:35 pm:        Hey guys, I have a SB9 front end on my S3T. I am putting a stock gauge cluster back on. I am guessing there is no way to run the speedo. Anyone? thanks, george   Ratbuell Posted on Wednesday, September 03, 2008 - 10:05 pm:        You could change to a later transmission (with tone ring) and electronic speedo, driven off the output shaft...or if you know a really good machinist you could make enough space between the wheel and fork to get the drive inserted. There are also electronic aftermarket choices - a search should turn up some options for you   Georgedombeck Posted on Wednesday, September 03, 2008 - 10:11 pm:        I have an electric speedo now, just thought it would be nice to have the stocker working. thanks, george   Crazyhorse Posted on Thursday, September 04, 2008 - 05:51 am:        George I thought the newer tubers after 99 were all electric. may be wrong.   Guell Posted on Thursday, September 04, 2008 - 06:41 am:        They are, he would have to have his cases machined if im not mistaken   Georgedombeck Posted on Thursday, September 04, 2008 - 07:40 am:        I have a 97 s3 with a XB9 front end.   Oldog Posted on Thursday, September 04, 2008 - 07:05 pm:        99 and up should be machined for the stock sensor, the meters are the same 99 to 02 IFAIK, look above the output shaft area inboard IIRC the sensor is inserted there.   Friedrice Posted on Friday, September 05, 2008 - 10:05 am:        " I have a 97 s3 with a XB9 front end. " So did you make it work?   Georgedombeck Posted on Friday, September 05, 2008 - 11:08 am:        Make the front end work? works awsome. I am not going to use the stock speedo, too much work to convert. I will continue using the aftermarket digital. thanks, george   Joesbuell Posted on Saturday, September 06, 2008 - 08:38 am:        I have a 98 S3T with an XB front end too. I solved the problem by running a Digi-Beast speedo and made my own speed sensor mounted to the rear brake caliper mount. Works a treat 10000k's so far since the mod. Sorry about all the pictures   Guell Posted on Saturday, September 06, 2008 - 09:18 am:        Jodie, where did you buy that speedometer from? Ive been looking since im going through with the xb front end.   Joesbuell Posted on Saturday, September 06, 2008 - 07:14 pm:        I got it from extreme creations here in Australia http://www.extremecreations.com.au/products.asp?vi ew=digidash. I really wanted to go with the dash off the new KTM 690 Duke, I still may in the future.   Joesbuell Posted on Saturday, September 06, 2008 - 07:17 pm:        Here's a picture of the speedo model number MWS14BBL
