    1982 GS850G speedometer interchangeability with 1983 GS1100GL?

    I've been looking for a new speedo/tach set up for my damaged ones, I found the set up for a GS1100GL. The gauges and center console look the same, but are they actually interchangeable?

    Here's the link to the GS1100GL gauges ... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1983-SUZUKI-...a645ed&vxp=mtr

    Here's a picture of my GS850G gauges ... 82 gs850g gauges.jpg

    Any insight is appreciated!

    Yes, those will interchange just fine.

    If you look up the part numbers, they are the same.

    Actually, an '82 originally came with an 85mph speedo. Either it's really an '83 or the speedo was switched at some point.

    That looks like a good price on that fleaBay auction -- better grab 'em!

        Good find! That's a great price, and you aren't stuck with the old 85 mph speedo.
