Wanted - Gauge Reset Knob

[The Standard]

Anyone have a spare speedo reset knob? Assuming they are the same for all model gauges. If not seeking for early model.

If you cannot find an original, HVC Cycle sells a replacement. Not quite the same, but an improvement on the design.

Thanks for recommendation. If unable to locate a OE version will look into it.

Do you have a picture of one installed on the gauge. On their site they just show the knob by itself. Curious how much of the skinny part of knob is visible when installed.

I do not. But I believe there is a rubber boot that goes over the factory unit.

Here you go, don’t know if you have the knob off right now, but here’s how it works, remove the tiny screw inside the knob ( carefully ) pull the knob straight off the shaft, don’t twist. The reset shaft has a flat side and is shaped like a capital D, the inside of the knob is shaped the same. Sometimes the knobs have been glued on, resist the urge to twist it or you will strip out the inside.

Here is what it will look like without a dust boot.

Excellent. Thank you.

That looks very “factory looking”. Is the dustboot part of the original knob or a separate part within the assembly?

The dust boot is separate.
