This is a verry simple way to see how fast your really going.
First, go buy a speedo from walmart or any local target place. I chose the Schwinn speedo, which works great. No need to buy the deluxe one, since you dont need the other features it has, but if you want, go for it.
Now, open it up, and set it up like it says. To get the code, follow the included directions, for a cag, the wheel code is 0898. If you have trouble getting your code, PM me and ill help you out.
Next, mount the speedo somewhere where its visable while riding, i chose the left handlebar area (since my kill switch isnt there anymore). How, run the wire to the back wheel.
Here comes the harder part, mounting the magnet. I just drilled a hole big enough to accomidate it on the rear sprocket, and used the suplied screw to hold it in place. I also used a washer just incase. Then i used glue to secure it.
Now, mount the speedo receiver part, making sure its close enough to the magnet so it can detect it on ever turn, directions say 1 mm.
Cag- 0898
X3- 1021
Your all set, heres my setup.

All in all, took an hour and 20 bucks.
