leroysch Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Went to bond the bezel/glass back on my speedo and discovered all the guts in bucket move around. Welllll..that didn't seem right, and thanks to the search function, found this: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=13045&hl=speedo (looks like the bike was successful in executing method one without my assistance) Thanks guys/gals! Aaargh....and the weekend weather is going to be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leroysch Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Would someone more learned than me help confirm my suspicions? While I was able to get the plastic trip meter knob off, the brass looking male D shaped thing it engages sticks out pretty far and creates an effective diameter preventing the speedo guts to slide out of the white cup containing them. Is there another threaded interface between this brass piece and the trip odometer shaft that will allow it to be removed? Is this interface the LH thread I've read about in other threads. I tried turning it clockwise, but didn't seem to be making much progress. On the bright side, the fasteners which hold the guts stable in the white cup are missing, and I'm hearing something rattling around in the cup which are probably the fasteners on the other side of this interface. On the cynical side, I'm half expecting the whole thing to break once reinstalled and having to go GPS. Thanks! (ITT gauge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobleswood Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I had to replace my ITI gauge a while ago but don't remember the knob causing a problem dismantling. The unit minus bezel is in the garage, I'll have a look tonight. If you need any parts you can have the old unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leroysch Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 The solution was just to worry it out, i.e., worry about cracking the white cup getting the mechanism out. Once I got the hang of it, no problem. Thanks for the offer, but I was able to get in there and re-attach one of the two cover mounting posts which had separated as well as refasten the mechanism to the cup with two screws which had gone missing. Greased the gears, bonded the bezel (my original problem) to the speedo, took a brief test drive, and it appears to be functional! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
