60 mph is about 100 kmph. Most of us math it out. If we didn’t want to do that we google it. Since you did neither, here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWY4YFPIKJM .

When I went through Canada I used a conversion chart for Kph to MPH, wrote down on a piece of paper, put some clear shipping tape over the paper and taped it on my windshield, I used kph in 10 kph increments to speedometer readings. Got home in the states and just removed it.

Thank you. I'm not a math whiz but I can do that. I'm looking for a way to switch speedometer to KMPH. I was wondering if Harley has that feature.

I suppose you could get a speedometer app on your phone that displays kph, if you're one who rides with their phone mounted on the bars.

The old days when purchased US bikes and brought them up, we had to get a KM speedometer to change ownership over to our name. We used vinyl stickers at 30 mph = 50 km, 60 mph = 100 km on the glass. After the safety check to change the ownership over, the vinyl came off.

You can roughly calculate km/h to mph by multiplying the km/h by 0.6 (it's actually 0.621, but 0.6 gets you close enough, and you won't be going faster than you think 
)
For mph to km/h, you multiply by the mph by 1.6 (it's actually 1.609)
Cheers!
