Sold / Found / Inactive - I want your speedo...and tach 82/83

[drdano]

The prior-abusor of my '82 XS tried to cut the faces off my speedo and tach...and I'm tired of having to re-electrical tape them each season. Got a speedo and tach pair in your parts bin of your 82/83 chopper build that are in good shape? I'd love to return them to service on my cafe-ish. Got one or the other? That works too. Send me a PM with price and some photos. Thanks all.

Maybe @gggGary can help you.

yeah I think I have a pair or two.
do they need to be the blacked out 82 or is chrome OK?

From a special with 120mph speedo 35 to your usa door?

Those will do the job if they are functional. Reply to my PM with where to send the funds. Thanks!

They both work good. I think one backlight wire is different from 82 otherwise plug n play.

I know that from '77 to '83 they'll all swap with no need to change the drive.
It's the bell inside the speedo that is geared to match the faceplate, whether it reads 85, 120 or 140mph.

There are some other wiring differences with where indicator lights are in the tach and center cluster from the 78-80 to the 81-83. I swapped parts so you will have a set that is plug n play to the 82 harness 'cuz that's how I play.
Azman; please kill that post with erroneous info.
