    140 mph speedo

    Simple question for someone. I just picked up a console from an '83 GS1100E (with the 140 mph speedo. I want to switch speedos with my 80 mph '82. The new console is cracked, so I don't want to replace the whole thing. Is it an easy exchange to just pop the old speedo out the back and pop in the new (plus make connections)? Anything I should know?

    I think so

    They're separate components that be purchased independently so I think you could probably do it without any trouble at all.

        I won a cluster from a 83 1100e on E-bay ($25.00!!) and will adapting my 80 1000g to use it.
        not to hard, just need to add a couple wires and block off my tach cable drive on the engine, wire in a temp sensor, and run a sensor wire for the electronic tach.
