    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Okay, first off seaching does not give me relevant information. I am trying to replace the glass assembly off my 1983 gs750e. The speedo and tach gauge cluster is not the same type as what is already posted for disassembly using the drill press method. I can get the glass assembly (4) loose, but can not figure out how to get the trip reset knob (5) to come off. Anyone ever dealt with this issue please feel free to chime in.

I'm not familiar with those square gage clusters.

The knobs on the round speedo's just pull straight out... although sometimes it takes a little effort to get them out...

Try shooting a little WD-40 or silicone down the shaft & give a pull straight up.
 
Salty_Monk made this repair on a friends 750ES. If the knob doesn't come off like Mike suggests (I think he is right in that it just pulls off), you might want to hunt down Salty via PM and ask him what to do.
 
Got it!

Got it!

Thanks for the reply, got the knob off and now I can replace the broken assembly.
