    Glass in Gauge Cluster

    Can anyone tell me if that glass in the gauge cluster can be replaced? I am guessing that it is some sort of plexiglass or the like. Mine has really fine cracks in it...like it got really hot and them got rained on.

    Any Ideas....and is this the correct place for this thread?

    That's glass.
    You can pry it open and replace the glass.

      Which bike?
      The '80 1100E has a one piece plastic lens to cover both gauges, and the lower lights and things too.
      I never did find one after I broke mine.

        My old GT250 had the dis-colored lenses from sitting outside with the PO.
        I took the gauges apart and took one of the plastic lenses to a local glass shop and they were able to cut me 2 new pieces of glass the same size and thickness.
        Glue the gauges back together and wala...perfection.

          It is for the 80 1100E. The PO must have left it in the sun or something. I will have to see what I can find.

          Thanks!
