Jon,
Look at your current speedometer drive unit. It should have a ratio marked
on it. For the deuce with 900 wheels the ratio is 1:0.187 and with 1100
wheels it is 1:.200.
Measure the circumferance of your tires and figure out how much the new
ratio will have to be when you change from 1100 to 1400 tires.
Then at least you will know what to look for.
If you need help, just send me the ratio on your current adapter and the
tire measurements.
I may have a source for the adapter you need.
