Speedometer and Tachometer 1981 r65
« on: January 22, 2020, 11:14:04 AM »
For Sale: Stock speedometer and tachometer from my 1981 r65. The odometer is not working on the speedo, other than that they both function as expected. Feel free to PM me an offer.

I have a few other parts dealing with gauges and headlight area as I replaced my stock parts with aftermarket. let me know if you need something else.

I can send more pictures and shipping will be from Alabama.

That looks like a speedo off an LS even though your sign on says R65....... Do you have a good LS instrument surround for the LS?

I'm very interested, if you have one please put a price on it and I will see if my meager pocket book will get the job done

Thanks

hey wilcom I dont know if this is what you are looking for but this is the piece I have that would match the description of an instrument surround. I'm not sure if my bike is an LS. If it is, it didnt have the little fairing on it when I bought it. Let me know if this is what you are looking for :) I also have an orinal clock and volt meter with mounts. I know people are always looking for those.

Those are standard R65 parts but they look pretty good!

I saw your front reset button and thought they just came on LS models, my mistake. What I was looking is pictured below I have two LS's and both have the tabs broken off...………. aaaarrrrghhhhhhhhaaaarrrrghhhhhhhhaaaarrrrghhhhhhhh

I thought they were standard r65 but I am no expert so I figured y'all  would know. The parts are in good shape, a little dusty from being stored in a box in the garage.
