very hard to get. regularly go for over $250. look for a TS 400 one. they are better than PE speedos. only cosmetic difference is black face instead of brown and i think the trip meter knob is slighly different shape. TS 400 has chrome ring on bottom bu taht just comes off, its only decoration.

if you really want brown face you can pull apart the speedo and get a sign writer to print a brown face that you can stick over the original black one, or paint the face brown and get the white numbers printed on.

there is a NOS PE speedo on ebay in US from seller two wheels unlimited. i will get you his email.

I know, It's unreasonably expensive but it is important to note that the same 140km/h speedo's adorned TS125/185/250 B,C,& N models and you might find one of those a lot cheaper (you just have to make a bracket)

i did discuss that speedo with a PE 250 B expert in US a few weeks ago and we couldnt really come to the conclusion of if it was truely a PE one. there was several ( about 4 or 5) speedos available for the 77 model. the zedder programe seemed to suggest part number was correct for 250 b as optional fitment but they would be pretty rare. we didnt really know if the seller has just stuck that speedo on a PE bracket either and listed it as that part number.

but as it was an optional KM version thats why you would hardly ever see one on a US PE.

idealy you want one off a 300 X 21 inch front wheel so thats why the TS 400 ones are good. look on asian ebay sellers stores. i found a NOS TS 400 speedo in singapore last year.
