    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

450 Gauges on a 750?

Any reason I can't use the gauges from my '81 450L on my '83 750T? It only goes to 85, but I never go faster than that since it would be in excess of posted speed limits...

...right. Anyway, this should work, yes?
 
Should be no problem. ALL japanese bikes use the same gear ratio for the speedo..i think its something like 2600:60 and the tach should be the same way as well i would think...at least with the same tranny design. The biggest problem you may have is bracket mount spacing, but i have a set of 550 gauges that may go on my 750B and all I'll have to do is bend the bracket to my liking as the L models tend to sit the gauges more upright due to the seating arrangement's line of sight.
 
Sweet. This will be a temporary fix until I can find a better alternative I'm willing to spend money on.
 
Might have to use the 750's original tach. It's just the speedo and middle cluster that's f*cked.
