    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I tried to use the search before I posted and I really hope this is the right place. I was working on my 81 750E and got the tach cable replaced. I started it tp make sure it worked and part of the speedo came off. The glass (plastic) has been off since I bought the bike. I was just wondering of 100 bucks is the going rate cause that is all that I have found.
 
Are you sure there's no way to fix the one you have? I've read of people making new "glass" for theirs out of Lexan from Home Depot.

If you stake out eBay for awhile, and aren't too picky about the condition, you should be able to pick up a working one for about half that.

Also, go find the part number for the speedo and check the OEM parts sites to see what other models might share the same speedo and search eBay for those too. Suzuki often used the same clocks across several models of the same and neighboring years.

Last but certainly not least, I recommend posting in the Parts Wanted section here, you'd be amazed at what some GS owners have kicking around in their parts bins.
