GSXR Gauges?

[oshanac]

Will any GXSR gauges fit our bike? Anyone? Thanks. I have a 1979 GS750.

You can make anything fit. The issues with the GSXR gauges are: 1. The tach is electronic so you will have to run a lead from one of your coils to the tach. Not so bad. 2. You need to make sure that whatever gauges you are looking at have a speedometer that is cable driven. The newer ones are electronic and might be complicated to get to work. 3. GSXR's come with fairings that hide the underside of the gauges so they are not finished very cleanly. This is mostly cosmetic but still a consideration.

I've got some from a '92 750 on my '83, but it also has the entire fork assembly from a GSX 600 on it also....

Thanks for the responces. So, say a 1986 GSXR, speedo would be cable right?

Yes they certainly are

Tone, then is it safe to say it would work? Thanks

Will it work? Probably. But the end of the cable drive needs to be the same, the gear ratios need to be the same and then you need to find a 20+ year old speedo that works for less than a fortune.

I would say that one of the electronic tach/speedo/odo units would be a better bet for not much more than the used speedo will cost.

I just bought one of these for my 1100E, but have yet to mount it. They have a bulletproof reputation among the dual sport and off-road guys.

It has been used by a number of forum members with good results.

yes they work, speedo ratio is the same, ive done it a couple of times using both gsxr clocks & bandit 1200 clocks you get a slightly wrong reading on the speedo using the original wheel due to the rolling diameter
