Speed restrictor nut I remember there was a post on grinding down a nut to bypass speed restrictor..
I have the Speedo healer so what I would like to do is grind down that nut and adjust my speedometer correctly..
I also would like to know.
Does the Speedo healer advance or do anything to your timing when you adjust to bypass your speed limiter..
Actually what I'm trying to figure out is it more beneficial to adjust the Speedo healer so it helps the timing..
If it doesn't help that I rather just grind the nut and adjust the Speedo healer to read correctly on the odometer.

The Speeedohealer only manipulates the signal to the speed circuit, nothing else. Why would you want to grind the nut when you can use the healer?

riderharder, theres no point in grinding the nut AND having the speedohealer... they do the SAME thing. dont touch the nut if you have the healer, unless you just want to make things difficult.

I was under the assumption that the nut bypassed the restriction and then you could use the Speedo healer to recalibrate your odometer.
I know the nut will off throw your speedometer gauge and bypass the limiter so I figured I could use the Speedo healer to recalibrate my speedometer and I was under the assumption that it was still unrestricted because of the nut that's how I was thinking..

somewhere I read a person can calibrate the SH to use the inner 300 kph as a 300mph. who goes over 189 mph often??
88 mph get's you back to the future already...

Are there two types of speedohealers? Mine lets me set an A and a B calibration AND lets me choose to use the KPH or MPH scale. I have it set to -14% and using KPH scale so I have a dead-on accurate 300MPH speedo.

Thanks for the information I was drinking a little bit too much the day I started this topic.

There is only one. Mine lets me set an A and b also.. I set A at 7% and b at 90%..
In the manual it shows something like 7% on the street and on the track like 90%..
14% and using KPH is a great idea also specially if you're running a 16 tooth in the front..
Here's a video I came across that might help somebody installing there's.

I figured if I grind the nut down then I could actually calibrate my speed to read correctly.
Why not just calibrate your speed to read correctly without grinding the nut.........?
I have so much stuff on that motorcycle it looks like the Knight Rider car..
The LCD screen 200 is a pain in the ass to calibrate..
I wish that they came out with the firmware for the power Commander five so it can work on 07 and 06 models.. I know they're in the process of doing it and I'm just too inpatient.

i dont think you understand... it would be just as easy to adj the speedo as it would to take the time to take the nut off, grind it down, and THEN adj the speedo.... dosent make any sense whatsoever. whatever floats your boat...
take all the electronic stuff off if you dont use it,unless you just like how it looks.

Grinding a corner off the nut will reduce the speed data going to the ecu by 16.6%, a Speedo Healer allows fine adjustment for re-calibrating the speedo or gives lots of headroom to defeat the speed limiter (and then the speedo will under-read) but the SH can be changed easily, the countershaft nut cannot.
We are waiting for Compton to give us some feedback on the Muzzy Bonneville Pro Derestrictor, which appears to offer an unrestricted bike with a correct speedo. Lets hope so as it solves the problem for once and for all.

i understand bob, but wouldnt it be easier to just adj the speedo healer??

That depends on why you bought a Speedo Healer. I do adjust mine, I use it to offset (derestrict) the speedo for top-speed competition and then I re-set it to transparent for the road so the speedo reading is correct. It can't do both things at the same time, while the Bonneville derestrictor claims to be able to. Fit and forget.

Ok, got you now. I wasn't advocating grinding the nut but I am interested in the Bonneville derestrictor, if it works as they claim.
