Re: odometer??..

It will show whatever the new odometer has. He should just ask the last owner how many miles it had, and use that as a rough guess. or just get a new one and say **** it

Re: odometer??..

I know for sure on the R6 that there is no tamper seal. It is a digital display. The reason most cars have it is so you dont roll the dials. You cant just roll the dials on a digital readout unless you have a data link to it, and a program to edit it.

and i wont worry about a dealership. i will just tell the buyer it has 8700 miles on there than the odometer shows.
