Default Speedo Adjustment

If I change my cluster, Is there any way to adjust my new cluster to match the mileage of my old cluster? Of course we are taking into account the new one has less miles on it.

Alright man, I've done this a million of times. Here is what you can do, very simple. Whichever cluster that you want to adjust your miles on, pop the plastic front cover off of it using a a couple of flathead screwdrivers pushing the tabs in the back. Than what you need to do is either get a small flathead, or pencil with an eraser, or those dental utililities used to remove plaque-it has a rubber hook at the end. Than all you have to do is gently move the numbers up, one by one starting with the last digit to your right. Simple.

I appreciate all the advice. Legal and illegal. I was interested in the legal ones actually, that is why I am asking this question to keep the miles as true as possible. So any speedo shop can do this and document it properly?

you can sit there and manually roll the miles back or forth till you get what you want... will make your finger hurt tho. its easy once you take it apart, you'll see what needs to be turned
