D1 it is not all buttoned up yet we have at least 4 more weeks before we can even think of riding......
Very true indeed ratman . Mine is almost all put back together , at least the bulk of it .
Milky I would have to say the majority of our speedo housings are stock . I say majority because I'm sure somewhere out there some body has done a mod , but honestly I've never seen it ? Now my mind is spinning , has anyone seen something different ?

Mines a stock speedo (to poor for another one) But think with the paint on the bike.. something different is in order, besides.. it's a cheap mod.Ratman your speedo all lit up red would look cool
Milky see what you started now my buddy has to tear his speedo apart after getting everything nice and clean and buttoned up

- March 19, 2014, 08:27:22 AMThink i will attempt this evening.. depending on how i feel after work. I know local parts store has some 194's in Yellow and Red.. so may nab them both and see what i think. Then order some other colors online.

- March 19, 2014, 08:16:36 AMit is really simple to remove the dash. The three screws on the cover come out and you can access the quick disconnect of the dash idiot lights. the bottom screw will release the speedo houseing it just lifts off then, and there is a quick disconnect again to undo. Then a small phillips screw driver into the reset knob, and turn it out while holding the reset know. It is in there unlees it has been changed or modified by a PO. There is also 2/3 bolts that hold tha actuall speedo into the houseing, then the unit should just come loose and the bulds are simple pull out and bingo.

- March 19, 2014, 08:08:20 AMPlanning on tackling this in the next day or so.. How does the dash panel come off (or speedo) so i can reach the bulbs, I looked at Trip reset knob, no screw on end as in display above. (unless covered) If i can get this torn apart, may do this tonight (yes will get pics) Any tear down info would be helpful (planning on riding it rest of week due to nice weather!)

(may get some reds and see how they look with stock gauge) Crazy idea that came to mind that spawned this whole thing... That's what I get for thinking again.It is the wedge type bulb , Troll . I just put everything back together this afternoon as I still had the bike torn apart for winter projects . Sorry milky I thought you were trying to cross reference the part # .
