    Hi everyone!

    New to the forum, glad to be part of Triumph fanatics.

    Reaching out from Seoul, Korea, got myself a 16' Bonneville T120, Jet black. Love the bike, love the torque and engine enhancement than the T100 I've had for 2 years, enjoying mostly city commutes and short tours since I'm stuck in a country that even prohibits motorbikes on the freeway.

    Anyhow, I'm stuck on an issue. How the heck do you change the miles setting to kilometer on the gauge display? It was fairly simple with the T100, but I've tried everything with the T120 and I just can't seem to locate anything related to changing the settings.

    I've come to think that it's not possible on this bike...

    Hi Rob!

    I bought mine last week and just consulted the manual: I can not find a way to switch from Miles to Kilometers, or vice versa...
    Perhaps they can help you at the dealer with all their computer-plug-ins...!?

    Do you have two scales on the speedometer? That could be a hint. If it only shows mph, then maybe the digital readout can not show Kilometers either...

    Enjoy the bike!

    (Oh, I forgot to mention it: before long, you'll be told: we want to see pictures :D:D)

    Welcome in, you might need to speak to a dealer, although there are a few members here that might know, I couldn't see anything in the manual.

    Hello Rob and welcome. Re your question, if you look through the LCD screen menu options you'll find a section called "Units" or something similar. This is where you can change your fuel consumption readout from mpg to ltrs/100kms - have a play around with that maybe?

    Welcome Rob. When you've figured it out we need to see some pics of the display, but mostly surrounded by the bike in various poses of course.

    Hi amd welcome.
    I think triumph like to do this. My d600 has no obvious way. I worked out by button holding that you can change the units for speedo and odo separately. I can have speedo on kms and odo miles. Vise versa or all miles/kilometres etc. And the engine temp in degs or Fahrenheit. It cycled em in an order, maybe worth a play around with?
    (please don't blame me if the bike has a fit) :p

    There is a way to convert KM to Miles on the LCD screen as BigLad said, I had to change my SE over. I will look in the manual later and it may be the same operation.
