A Model Gauge Restoration

[rpr851r]

Hello again,
I'm in the process of tackling my gauge cluster on my A and have a few questions. First is where can I get the rubber boots that hold the bulbs in the gauges. Mine were dried out and fell apart on disassembly. The second question i have is where can I send the gauges to get them restored and what can I expect to pay. They work and look fair but I would like them freshened up. I had visions of doing it myself but am thinking better of it.

Thanks,
Rich

To answer your questions I have a few of the harnesses for the instrument bulbs to fit the later GT750s but none for the tach on the RE5 as its a different harness. As for the gauges have a look at this set.

I think I recognize those gauges. I picked them up from the post office on Saturday and opened the box on Sunday. Very nice work. I have accumulated various harness bits from other Suzuki's that are close and plan to use them a donor parts.

Regards,
Rich
