Is it legal to replace the cluster with a different odometer reading?

I would like to install a new cluster with tachometer. The odometer reading
will change, is it possible to adjust the new one accordingly?

Honda provided a place to write that old / new mileage info in the front
of many of the owner's manuals. maybe there's more about the topic at
the Honda web site. Local law will override Honda's suggestions, I'm sure.

Most places, replacing the odometer is legal, but it has to be disclosed
when you sell the car.

It is possible to change the reading of the new odometer to match the
old one. You can tinker with it yourself (think function generator set
to 5V square wave, few hundred Hz in place of the VSS) or take it to a
speedometer shop (yes, they still exist!).

In many cases the simplest solution is to transplant your old
speedometer / odometer into the new-to-you cluster.

Since I intend to keep my 93 HB till it is crushed, I wrote the old mileage
from the stock cluster on the recipet for the new cluster. I taped the
recipet to the old cluster. There is 43k mile difference. This is ONLY a
issue when filing when transfering a title to a new owner.

Mine will be scrapped before sold.

My new used cluster came with a broken odometer. I swapped it with my original
odometer.
