speedometer

[Double Blue]

Hello Everyone,
I have recently relocated to live in the UK. Unfortunately during the process of emigration I was separated from my GS (1200) . My plan is to bring her into the country as soon as possible.
That brings me to the first technical question I would like to ask all of you GSers out there with a couple of million kms riding experience between you: The speedometer needs to be converted from kmph to mph to be able to legally ride on British roads. Is there a less costly option to changing the complete speedometer unit? It was indicated there might be a sticker or transfer available?
Keep the shiny side up

My 99 varadero had a kph speedo. I worked out the equivalent in mph and put a few stickers on thye speedo at 30mph, 50mph and 70mph.
Worked well and passed mot's fine

Welcome Blue
Does the speedo not have mph in smaller text already?
And, where did you move from?

SPEEDOMETER KPH/MPH

Hi,
there is always a chance I might be a juvenile Presbyope, but even though, I should have noticed an extra gradation on the speedo in mph. Thanks for your reply.
