Bryan it does not match my 500, although it is the same physical size. I did think 400 but the pics I have seen are different, the graduations are in 10mph increments and most others I have seen are in 20mph per mark.

Is the cable attachment straight out or angled?

It's not a 400f one, they were all marked to 120mph although ones fitted to early ones and ones exported to the USA were maked 130mph. The distance between the mileage and trip counters indicates to me it's an early Honda CB250 one. Can't quite see the trip knob, if that has a screw securing it to the trip shaft it will be pre 1975 bike.

There was an interim model in the US that had small clocks at a different angle

I remembered where it came from, it had been bodged on to an imported 550k3 I bought from DK spares, it had a large tacho and a small speedo, so a US 500 or 350 is a good probability,i would have thought a 500 would have a 120 mph speedo.

Found identical one on American ebay fits a cb350 with a warning light cluster between the clocks, not like the later 550s or 750s
