          no it doesnt look like a stock speedo most of them go to 150. mine only goes to 120 but that one doesnt look right. not to mention you cant see the writing in the lower part of the speedo that says made in japan. personally i have never seen this type of speedo on a kat and it goes to 135 not very common number to go to. so i dont think that its a stock speedo

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.

            Definitely not the stock speedo. It looks to me like it probably came off of a Kawi.

              Not the original paint - custom paint is not a plus, especially if it's done half ***.

              It might be worth buying but I'd offer close to trade in value - not retail, not even close.

                  nope. its not an original speedo. i can say that for sure. my friend andy has a 97' and its not like that at all. plus, the speedo is bigger than the tach gauge and has no rubber seal around it and its missing the little tab thingy to reset your tripometer. plus a kat speedo goes to 160 not 135
