What do they look like? I have a really good Yamaha speedo from that era but don't know what model it's from.

As its missing from an IT490 that I recently acquired Im assuming it looks like this?
I have the ignition barrel in place and the metal speedo holder, just no speedo

Mine is not the same as that. Not a rectangle shape, the top section has two angle sides with the flat between them. Bit like a roof shape.

Those speedos are as rare as rocking horse manure and VERY expensive when the do come up for sale, I modified my speedo mount by drilling out the spot welds and welded on a mount from a more common Yamaha speedo shape as shown below

I bought one of these to cut the mount plate off of.

Thanks gents,
I see the rectangular IT ones on O/S eBay but of course they're all in MPH
I think the DT/TT speedos are the "roof shaped" ones, I might just get one of those so when I put it up for sale soon at least it has something to fill the void
Ill save my coins for Husky rocking horse manure parts ....and VORs
