Default Speedo restoration

anybody know of a good spot to do it? I see whereI can buy a new cover and ignition switch, but what about the actual face? Otherwise I'll just keep it the way it is. the inside of my speedo needs a new paint job or somethin.

Default RE: Speedo restoration

There used to be an old retired guy from Michigan that rebuilt old Harley speedos. He retired from Harley as their main speedo repair guy. Met him in Daytona in 1995 at bike week. He hasn't answered his phone in about 6 years now. I'm guessing he either moved or passed away.
He was an old man then but he knew his Harley speedos. Had a large cache of old NOS speedo parts. Like I said though I haven't been able to contact him for years now.
