Just got a e-mail from Z1parts. They said if I had a tracking # they would send a new one today. I was typing it as I got their e-mail. Just got another one now. They're sending it out now. Now that's service. Puts the others to shame. :whistle:

I've bought parts from them over the last three years.

I got my speedo. It was in the dirt at my neighbor's driveway where it could be run over. :angry: Must be that substitute again. He's done it before. It says delivered at or on the door/porch. Going to the post office tomorrow and file a complaint. WTF is wrong with people? Can't get a sprocket, buy another one and now this? :blink:
BTW eBay says they will not tolerate the sellers stating shipping from one carrier and using another. I'm going to look and see if z1partsinc has one. I will have to pay tax but at least I know I'll get it, MAYBE. :whistle:

Speedo is in and registering the short distance to my front yard. :lol: On my way to the post office then Landers. A little windy so I'll see what it is like up there.

112 miles on the speedo and no problems. Got some pics and clips. A little windy and chilly up there but it warmed up while I was there. Nice ride. :woohoo:

Is this the aftermarket, warranty, replacement speedo?

Yup. I'm good to go. I'll be sending back the Tach soon. They're fine with that. B)

The new gauges have different bulbs. I painted the tips blue for the small gauges. Now they're light blue LED's. I think I used too much. I painted four new bulbs with just a touch on the tips to add color to the Tach and Speedo. I'll get a shot of the little gauges when it gets dark.

Got my Led's put in. I guess I ordered blue ones. THAT'S WHY THEY WERE SO BLUE. :blush: What a drag it is getting old. :dry: I can put the brake indicator bulb and socket in instead from the old gauges. I didn't think of it at the time. :blush: Glad I didn't order red. :lol: When it gets dark I'll see how I like em. :whistle:
