fearless joe Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 my 99 650 vstar is going to need a new speedo, its going to be the easyest way to get it legal, does anyone know if one from a different year is a straght swap, or do i need a 99 like one of these for example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/YAMAHA-XVS650A-DRAG-CLASSIC-SPEEDO-ASSY-NEW-5SC8358010-/260825810294?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item3cba6e0576 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-XVS650-2006-Speedo-Clock-and-Mounting-Trim-/350470012480?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item5199a3fe40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Should be a straight swap. The '98 down the road and my own Mrs's 2001 both have the same speedo as me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fearless joe Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 they all look same, i just dont know if they all fit the same, electronically, some of them are listed as o4 and up and so on there is a 99 for sale..... from the usa, but thats a pain in the ass was hoping someone might have actually swapped one out at some point so i would know but chears for the advice all the same joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Well the above mentioned speedos all have the same electrical connectors as my bike, so I don't see any difference. I've had all three off and they all could be swapped over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
