Atc Speedo Delivered todaY!

[1DEADPRESIDENT]

Finally The ATC speedo I won off of e-bay arrived today. The seller had listed the item and I found it with in the first hour. His auction was for the speedo only, but had a pic of the BR he was parting out. He had his opening bid at $15.00. So I contacted him and asked him about the rest of the components and he said he had everything that went with it. With in a few e-mails I had him talked into a buy it now, which he did. So here is what I got, the speedo, 85 BR Bracket, speedo drive, cable which is missing the drive end for the speedo, 2 Clamps, and a rubber insulator, which I guess is for the clamp. Here are some pics

YEAH. I have read a few posts in regards to the speedos and the installation. Once I get the correct bracket and a new cable I will be right there with you. Nice looking BR's ... I am looking to pick up one of those for my other half...notice I didn't say better half She is anti kick start...

Nice man!!! Can't wait to see the pics of it on your X! You should have that 200e gearbox soon too! So what did you give for all that?

Look on eBay for a Honda cable... email the seller to get the lenth and buy one that is 32-34". You can use that second clamp to hold the cable close to the lower triple clamp... I will get a pic of my setup tomorrow so you can see what I'm talking about.

And John... nice work on your Big Reds!!!!

I tried to buy it for $160.00 which I thought was fair, especially with no pics of the speedo. I actually ended up spending a little more because at the time I was Freakin nervous that others had seen it and were homing in on it at the same time. I was surprised to see the clamps and bracket because I never mentioned those...knowing the bracket wouldn't fit either or mine.

Hmmmm..... I'm picking up a 85 Big Red this weekend and have 3 - 350X speedo drives..... makes me thinking...... You aren't putting a Big Red gearbox on a 350X are you? That'd be SSSOoooooooo..... faux pas!

Those of us that don't have a plethora at our disposal, make do with what we have... So yeah its semi-ghetto.. but functional. Are you willing to part with one?

Hey good score on getting that speedo setup. I actually cleaned up my speedo head and mounting bracket, then painted them both and it looks like brand new now. Just tape off the face of the speedo. I'd recommend doing that before you get it all mounted...put some clear coat(spray) over it too...

Hmmmmm.... nah... I guess not. I'll set it over with my 4 Black Number plates for my 3 Hondaline fairings.... Those 350X gearboxes are easy to find... I guess I'll hang on to them.

[1DEADPRESIDENT]

Thanks I will certainly keep my eyes on them.

1DP, what are you putting the speedo on? the 200x in your avatar or a 350x?

He's putting it on a 350x. He's also getting a 200e gearbox from me to use on his 200x... actually it should be there today!

No problem. I have seen the instuctions scanned on here somewhere in another post.

[350x'inNY]

I thought I had paper work on a speedo install but don't. I have other hondaline install paperworks but not on the speedo - sorry.

john

Yeah... I gave you the paper work for the Tachometer, not the Speedometer. Yeah.... Dead, that scan is probably from one of my posts. Oh... I also have a 83-84R or a 83-85 200X speedo gearbox and mounting bracket here too, but guess they are easy to find too. I'm not sure if the 200ES one will work on the cast hubs... I know it looks different, let us know if it works.
