Hi all,

I am thinking of doing a streetfighter job on my GPz500 (1989) and wondered if the clocks from a GPz750 would fit straight on? They look a bit better with the front fairing off than the box jobs on mine.

something like this:-

Hi

Might work, but depends on the setup of the coils. GPZ500 uses twin coils, so the trigger pulses for the coils (and likely the feed for the rev counter) might be the same.

All the best

The only way to find out is to try it. I reckon it should be ok.

As long as he can put up without a temperature gauge and with sorting out some idiot lights then maybe worth a try.

All the best

Warning lights for indicators, oil pressure, neutral, etc.

All the best
