Appearance: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Ease of Use/Installation: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Quality/Construction: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

Pros: Fit nicely and functions well
Cons: slight tension on wiring pulled bulb socket out

"This speedometer fit well and looks nice on my 1977 KZ650. I was impressed with the function and looks. I liked it so well I bought the matching tachometer. Both look good and function well right out of the box. Installation was easy and simple. Fit original cables with no modifications. Reads the same speed as my neighbors new Kawasaki when riding side by side. I would recommend this product as a replacement for lost or damaged original equipment and can be matched with a tachometer that functions well also."

Pros: Holds steady, does not vibrate to much.
Cons: is 5 mph off for actual speed.

"I received it in a timely mannner, it had good directions and was a good fit for my bike. I use it on a 1984 Kawisaki 1000Police bike I use it for escorting funerals and need a accurate speed for a steady ride. J. C. Whitney is a good company, and if you need a part, this is the place to go."

"I bought this speedometer for my chopper project, along with the matching tach. It's priced very well, and it's really easy to mount. It's solid and reliable and hasn't given me any problems for the last 4000 miles. It does have a few drawbacks. There is no trip odometer, and the face doesn't completely light up at night (the odometer part blocks the light from reaching the 60mph-100mph) range). The needle does not light up either. Plus... who needs a 160mph speedo on a chopper? When new, the speedo was a little bit slow to react to accelleration, but after a few hundred miles that loosened up and it acts fine now. The needle is well damnped and doesn't bounce around, and the whole unit feels indestructible. Not only do I recommend it, I've already purcahsed another one for a Street Fighter project. The matching tach is great too, if you have a mechanical-drive tach."
