If you have money to go buy a bike then be smart and buy the gear. Whether its 50 degrees or a 100 degress its ATGATT for me.... But that is just my opinion.

      Yep you can just buy a repalcement bulb, take apart your gauge cluster, and replace it with a new one. This link may help ya out. http://fiche.ronayers.com/Index.cfm/...up/SPEEDOMETER_

        Now what are the bulb sizes? To replace with LEDs . My goal is to make everything LED... well except the headlights of course.

                It's an easy project. There are 2 different size bulbs under there. Since I had to remove the windsheild and front plastics I replaced all of the bulbs with LEDs and changed my headlight bulbs. Figured I might as well. Shouldn't take more than a hour.

                  Not sure on the Pre or Post 600's, Post 750
                  But for the Pre 750 Guages. These are what I used

                      I wonder it these would be the same sizes for the pre 750s?

                          Same deal, mines an 88 but the bulbs are hard to find atleast locally. you can probably find them online.
