I need to find a speedo for my girlfriends 1990 gs500.  It would make it alot easyer if I could find other bikes that use the same speedo.  I think a gs650 199? is the same size.  thanks John
1990 gs500e  is my girlfreinds bike.
2000 triumph speed triple is my ride.

Considering the front rim came from an '88 GSXR750, a speedo from the same bike will be calibrated correctly, but I don't know if it will fit the instrument bezel.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

you probably already checked, but if not, see if the cable's broken. i've lost one, and at first i thought the speedo was broken, when it was just the cable. anyway, gl.

just wondering.....what part of the front rim came from a gsxr?

if it was the rim.... it would easily swap into a GSXR axle....it don't
and i can't find brgs with GSXR ID and GS OD.... :(

um, been there done that. :dunno:

in theory.......any bike with a 17 inch front and a cable driven speedo should fit....better to stay with brand...SUZ
