CB550f speedo face wanted
AshimotoK0:
Posted today pls let me know when you receive OK Peter.
The plot thickens though, venturing in my garage tonight, cursing the MG Midget that languishes unloved for 20 years and preventing me from my bike restos. I found all of my 250/350K /450K gauges (was a serial collector at one time, don't ask!)and there was a large one stripped down in a Jiffy bag labelled CB500/550? and its a Nippon Seiki one with a very crazed (hot climate) green face up to 120MPH but the wierd thing is that the trip reset comes out the back of the gauge not the side. So what's this really from, it's supposed to be a Honda one? 500T?
Cheers..... AshD

Ha, I'm looking at one right now. Is the trip on top and mileage below?
Oh this is perfect green face.

Yes that's it . What model do you reckon it fits?

No idea, I bought a few from Ebay I think. I assumed it was 750. Although I suppose the 750 has a higher MPH.

Thanks for the face Ash, it's exactly the same as far as the screw hole positions and mileage counter apertures are concerned.. An overlay on it and it will be a perfect job.
As for the 'bag of bits' found in your garage, could be an early CB550F. I took a look on ebay USA and I'm sure I saw one claimed to be CB550F that had the trip reset on the back.
Thanks again Ash
