'74 CB550 Speedo housing/gear
« on: June 17, 2007, 02:19:59 PM »
Im on the hunt for a new speedo housing/gear (where the cable meets the fork).

Step one is to actually find out the part number, Ive been through all the pages for my bike on crotchrocket.com but I cant even find the part number or real name for this piece!!

As long as the wheel is the same diameter other SOHC gear/housing should work right?
There isnt much on ebay, and I cannot find anything at the parts 'sites I know of.

Anyone else out there had to replace this? Any source for a new one?

Thanks!

Thanks puppytrax!

*Edit* Although in my defense "Box Assy." is a tricky description!!!
