Speedo Glass Lens Replacement 82 GS850G ...Is It Possible???

[Anonymous]

I cracked my speedometer's glass lens. Is there a way to get at it to install a new piece of glass???

I would venture to guess that using another glass and some gasket sealant around the edge will work well. Apparently when I crashed my bike this friday I broke my tach glass. I'm hitting the salvage yard this saturday to get a new tach.

Glass replacement

The only way to remove the glass is by carefully prying up the metal bezel edge all the way around, replacing the glass with a fresh one and re-crimping the bezel. It will look rough unless you take great care both opening & closing the thing.

Thanks, I just bought a replacement from a small ebay vendor I've bought from before. $25.00 delivered.

And it's only 1800 miles under the actual mileage on my bike. Since it's a 140 mph guage I can probably turn 1800 miles with a drill motor in less than 24 hours, spinning it at 120 mph.
