Does anyone have a speedo trip rewind knob for a cb400 that they are willing to part with It is a push fit on splines Unfortunately had to distroy mine while doing a refurb and they are not listed as a spare Thanks Ross

If you don't find one, I'm about to make a couple and could easily make another. They will, however, be made from Stainless and not ally...

When you take the speedo apart you leave the knob on the shaft.
The shaft is in two parts put some heat on the shafts where they meet as it has thread lock on it.
Hold the shaft nearest the numbers with some long nose pliers and unscrew it LEFT HAND thread ;)

Cheers for that Matt. If Peter hasn't got any then i will take you up on your offer
Well Paul, you learn stuff everyday I never knew they unscrewed Only read that to remove the knob use a dremel to cut a slot in the knob which can be repaired This i was trying but totally destroyed the Knob Every day a school day That is now logged Thanks
