Speedo Calibration???????
I am going from a 100 mph speedo in my 1999 F150 to a 160 kph speedo from a Harley Truck. What would be the recalibration ratio????????? Thanks.

There's no "recalibration" needed on the speedometer.
Are you changing just the speedometer itself, or the entire cluster?

Isn't 100 mph equal to 160 kph?
My guess is that there is nothing else to change, but I could be wrong.
Try it and find out, then let us know.
