Default Pulsar's speedometer for Honda Unicorn

Hello frnds,
I would like to install a digital speedometer cum odometer in my Honda Unicorn.
Is it possible to connect the Bajaj Pulsar/ Apache digital speedometer onto Honda Unicorn ? Or is it possible to connect the digital speedometer of Honda stunner or Honda CB?

I would like to know whether Honda unicorn has a mechanical/digital speed sensor ? If it is a mechanical sensor, then, how can we connect digital speedometers to it ?

you will need to change the worm gear assembly at the front wheel to the digital one. And for 18" wheels, try the speedometer from the new CBZ extreme.

Is the lower end of the cable that touches the front wheel called the Worm gear ? If yes, how much will it cost to change it to a digital one...And, Is Apache's 18inch wheel?
Where can it be converted to a digital one in Kerala ?

I have a doubt regarding wheel's inch ..What do you mean by the 17inch or 18 inch wheels? Is it the circumference of the wheel including the rubber tyre..or is it just the external circumference of the rim ?

It is the diameter of the rim. And yes 17" and 18" rims need different calibration of the speedometer to display accurate speed.

Unicorn got mechanical speedo and works via cable setup, but the digital unit requires sensors. So I doubt whether direct fit is possible.

I've installed a Pulsar classic speedo unit on Unicorn two years back.
