GTX Limited
The speedometer gives a reading through a
speed sensor. Speed sensor is installed on riding

magnetic paddle wheel that triggers an electronic
pick-up that in turn sends a speed signal to the
speedometer.
The paddle wheel is protected by the pick-up
housing.

BLACK/ORANGE wires from the tab housing of
the speed sensor.
