    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.

Hi,

Just purchased my wife a 1978 GS 550..she's loves it but hates the original speedo and rev counter..even through it all works very well.

What is the easiest, of the shelf, to re-fresh this?

any ideas?

cheers
 
Those mini tach and speedo dials work quite well and bolt straight on. You do lose the idiot lights though. Have you considered the gauges from something a bit later - separate speedo / tacho with the idiot light console / gear indicator in the middle.
 
I've never had a bike with a gas gauge. I just watch my odometer.

I just put the base model Acewell 2853 on my 450 and I'm loving it. Round all in one unit with speedo and tacho, but all digital of course. It has a fuel gauge as well but not sure if it will work with the GS fuel level sender.
 
Hello, I have clocks from a Hesketh V1000 on mine, look ok if not a little large. I have been told that Hesketh can provide these new for ?40 + P&P.

Those Hesketh clocks are just CB750F clocks but with Hesketh stamped in place of Honda. Loads and loads of Honda ones around secondhand and loads of Hesketh new ones around as well - the minimum factory order for the clocks was way more than the number of bikes Hesketh turned out
