speedo facia screw

Post by monkeybikegirl »

Hi Everyone
One of the two tiny speedo face screws has come out and I would like to locktite it in. It looks like I have to take the whole speedo apart. Is this correct or am I missing a simple solution here?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I believe the lens is pretty much permanently in place.

Speedo repair

Post by Carott »

Monkeybikegirl,
The speedo on the R90S is easy to access for a simple job like reinstalling the face screw.
Servicing the internals is a complicated process best left to the pros.
This link http://www.pbase.com/dwerbil/1978_r1007_odometer_repair should help show you the basic disassembly procedures.
Use quality proper sized screwdrivers and it should go smoothly.

Thanks for that link. My speedo is off 10-15 mph. When my wife rides with me she screams/hits me because she thinks we are going too fast. Most of the time i am but the speedo being off does not help. :-)

I may go in and try to tune it. Thanks.
