I need a black and orange speedo face for a CBX400, probably one off any similar aged honda will do., I only need the face, not the glass or housing or anything, so not worried if speedo is smashed up. the same as pic below

take no note of price, I had to put something in there

Note to self NEVER EVER CLEAN SPEEDO FACE WITH METHS, unless you want the numbers to come off :weep:

nah its more complex than that, the face is made from white plastic, then the transperant orange paint goes on next, last the black with stencils for the markings, the face is lit from the back with the light shining though the orange numbers to make it look like the glow, cool huh?

Diesel Pig has a few CBX550 bits off his race bikes, might be worth a pm to him and see if he has one
