Does anyone know who restores the gauges for these bikes? Speedo, Tach and coolant gauge?
I had a company rebuild my 1976 Z900 gauges like new, but they dont do Suzuki's.

I am sure you may hear from a member. I recall a recent discussion of an excellent rebuild but his was a little heavily dampened on the tach needle. Better that fluttering constantly. Tim

If you have an A model, there's a bloke in of all places Jamaica (I think) who does good work on GT750's. He'll most certainly do A model RE5's. I'll get you his details. Where are you by the way? If you're in Australia I can point you to someone.

Multistrada- if you haven't already, join the Face Book Suzuki RE5 Owner's club. Allan Tucker is a member and he refurbishes GT750 clocks (and therefore RE5A would be right up his alley) and I'm told his finish is spectacular. If you have an M model, I'd still contact him and ask. And yes, he's in Jamaica. Just send him a PM.
Let me know if you're in Australia, I'll give you a name and 'phone number for clock restoration.

I have used Alan for my A model gauges and they came out very nice. gaugerestore.webs.com/

Tim Yes, that was a set of gauges restored by Allan Tucker. However, I think it's small criticism. The owner tells me the outside finish is superb and the price was considerably better than locally.
