I do not know of any direct replacement gauges.

But other gauges can be adapted, depending on your ability.....

I have 1st Gen (99-02) SV650 gauges on my 97. I modified a SV speed sensor to fit the GS axle. Just had to make a bushing to fit in the inside.
My 92 has '02 SV650S gauges. Still working on the speedo sensor for the GSXR front end, which requires 4 magnets attached to the rotor.

The tachs and lights were easy to wire, just need to be able to read a wire diagram.
Common sense in not very common.

What's ugly about yours?  You could probably spruce them up and make them better than new.

I wouldn't say its very ugly at all. Much better looking than the stock gauges.

Here are a few pics, Im planning on getting one as soon as I get the money. They run about $150, not bad at all. The US distributor for them is 60 miles from me.





This one shown with the surround you get with certain models to replicate all the stock LED function.
