If it feels good....do it....
Just removed the instruments and i gotta order something new and i am thinking about making a mount for the new ones. Might buy one because i have seen some cool mounts out there. I would really like the billet upper tripple however i have many other things more important to buy first.

Serously?
I do, i have the tach too on my CB750, i like the blue backlight (if you get the tach you need to order and swap out the back light w/ a blue LED from them so they match) Using them allowed me to clean up the triple tree / handlebar clamp area. the indicator lights work well too.

The Speedo comes that way, but the tach comes w/ a std. bulb. Dime City sells a special LED/Bulb for a couple of $ to convert. The Tach has two wires coming out the back for the backlight, tug them out and the bulb / socket comes out. Like a rubber plug. Switch the bulb / LED put it back together. I dont think Dime City sells red LED's though but they would look good too.
the speedo might have to be dissassembled, cause the dozen or so wires that come out of it are hard wired, but there is two screws on the back to hold it together, i imagine thats how you'd replace a blown-out bulb.
