Hey everyone, I have a 2000 VFR and decided to change the gauge faces for the tach and speedometer. To do this I needed to remove the needles from the gauges. So, all went well until I put the needles back on. First of all, I had no idea how to line them up properly. After some tweaking, it looks like the tach needle is pretty close but I cannot even get the speedometer needle to move. I have the bike on the center stand in first gear and when rolling on the throttle the needle for the speedometer does not move at all. I must have had the needle off and on 50 different times. Sometimes it won't fall back to zero so i move it but it does not seem to be affected at all by the throttle. Did I mess something up? Is there a "correct" way to do this?
Thanks ahead of time,
Primo

Thank you Seb!!!!!

Do you have any type of writeup on the gear indicator install? It's an excuse for me to spend more money and a very cool mod.
Thank you sir,

Curious where you got the aluminum gauges. I have the blue LED backlighting on my 5th gen but the stock gauges.
Thanks,

Is there anyone that bought a Solo Rack from me, that has installed it using their OEM HONDA Topbox?
I have a question from a buyer that is looking to see some pictures of how that type of install went, but I do not have a Honda Topbox - so I can't assist.
Looking for a photo or two - of the Solo Rack with the Honda intermediate plate installed, and then with the Honda top box base installed to it.
If your bike is covered up in the garage, this would be a great time to check that its sleeping ok, and snap a few pics!!
THank you!!!
I will ask again Ken!!!! Any 5th Gen racks?

Excellent write up Slammer. I appreciate all the time you take to do these. It gives us who have never tackled some of these projects the confidence to jump in and do them instead of paying someone.
Again, great job sir!
