I didn't do that change so I don't have a clue about it.

Looks like a pre 2010 ECU in the pics in the other thread

Does it make much difference?

If you have the OLD ECU you can simply fit a new set of generic instruments and set them up for the current mechanics.
An R+D Thread - Different instruments.
Spurred on by threads from folk who suddenly find themselves without a working Speedo or Tacho. And given more of a kick following some emails from a guy here in Spain @drctjcp - I have decided to have a bit of a play adapting a UNIVERSAL speedo to the R3. So I went onto ebay and found a CHEAP...

If it were me. I would give thought to the complete instrument change. Whilst I appreciate the original aesthetics may be pretty nifty - the irritation of the ODO being off would annoy me.
How much overall difference in ratios - including the wheel diameter change?

I dont know what the original ratio on bike diff, but the rigid axel was 2.94:1 and my IRS is 2.9:1 on 18" 275R 35 tyresIf you have the OLD ECU you can simply fit a new set of generic instruments and set them up for the current mechanics.
If it is a Post 2010 CANBUS ECU then you have to retain the OEM speedo as without it the bike will not start.An R+D Thread - Different instruments.

stand up straight and grab the world by the a$$
i will try to explain
my speedo from factory was 10% high (others say 5%) and odo was correct so at 100 miles per hour the speedo reads 90. so when i put a taller tire on
it went to 5% so it works for me 5% on speedo and 5% on odo.
when i corrected speedos i would have a 2 mile track and figure out a % it was off an then correct that percentage.
haven't got a clue how to do with tuneecu.

I have some information the triumph diff ratio is 2.846:1 Tyre 240/R16 50 outside circumference 79.9"
mine diff ration is 2.9:1 Tyre 275/R18 35 outside circumference 80.3
Difference mines reading 1.4% fast, is that correct?

Just curious, what are you asking is correct ?
Your speedometer indicates what it does.
Your GPS (or police radar/laser) gives some indication against standard.
That is really the only difference that matters.
