Thanks. I may take a chance. Like you said, they do warranty them. They are a little higher than same ones off e bay.

They have a eBay store. Just be sure it's z1parts.net
The best return policy in the business. If it works out post it here. I might try them again but they have to last at least a year but even then they could fail. :unsure:

My LTD is as much a enjoy looking at it in the garage, gradually make it better looking and running, and just a 5-30 mile ride occasionally. So they would hopefully work out ok. I did by new L/R handle bar switch gear from Z1parts and they seem pretty good so far. Gave up the four way flashers but no biggie there.

ZResto can rebuild your gauges...probably cheaper than replacing them.

Bob has done a half dozen for me.

zresto.com/

Edited to add...here are photos of some of the gauges he's done for me. One tach is for a Z1. Two are for my KZ1000 LTD (1980) and one is a speedo for the LTD. Since then he's done a couple more for my other Z1B.


I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.
