      79SF gauges

      I need the speedometer for a '79 SF. Does anybody know if the speedo is interchangeable from any other models? I'd be willing to buy the whole gauge set.

          All the specials share the same mouting setup for the speedo. 79 had the 165mph and then the 80 and up had a 85mph speedo but it still fits the same. The xs650 speedo will also drop in but I think has a 125mph speedo and then the xs750-850 fits as well but has a 145mph speedo I think.

                  speedo

                  NOT THE SWIM SUIT!

                  I'm pretty sure I've got an extra 79 special speedo in the garage. Yes, it's the 165mph one & has a good chrome case. (if I can find it!)

                  I believe it's worth about $75.00 + shipping. shipping usps priority is around $4-5. Let me know.

                      The 750s go up to 140. That's what I have on my SG, never had it past 130 so that's all you need anyway.

                      Pretty cheap on fleabay.
