Hey everyone,
Does anyone have a closeup pic of the Acorn nuts / hardware / washers on the back of the Speedo and Tach? I don't seem to have the original ones on my bike. I just noticed.
I have what looks like a 12mm nut that is loosely placed over the threaded part and then a small 8mm acorn nut screwed on top. (It's funny I've never noticed that before until I was looking close this morning).
When screwed on, mine looks like a large acorn nut that you could put a 12mm wrench on with a smaller top portion (the acorn portion) that has 8mm "flats". If I remove the small acorn portion, the nut under it will just fall off - as it's too large to be threaded onto the small stud of the gauges.
I do have the black rubber portion in the gauges. It looks like I'm missing a metal washer and original nut.
Since the stud is pretty small, I'm guessing this should actually be a "unique" fastener with a small threaded female portion with a larger body for something like a 12mm socket to fit on??
If possible I'd like to track down some original stuff (now that I know it's there it's going to bother me! >:( )
Should look like parts 7, 8, and 9.

Awesome. Exactly what I needed. Looks like I'm missing #8 and #9. I'll have to piece together a small order and pick those up. Thanks a bunch.
