not 100% sure, but depending on type of tacho fitted, on the back when you open the face to put the disc in is a small adjustment for speed warning (red light on clock face). some times this is linked to speed restrictor on vehicle. if you can locate adjuster might be worth altering that and try it. you wont do any harm, its not related to calibration of tacho or anything like that, just a warning of overspeed.
