For the Aussies: Reputable Instrument Repairer

Post by boxertwinjeff »

This is for a friend living in Beechworth Vic. He needs his R90S Speedo & Tacho Rebuilt / Reconditioned.
Wants to know what Company has the best reputation in Australia for doing this work?
Also, his housing sounds Cactus, can they be sourced or are they NLA? Cheers Jeff.

The housings for an 90s are NLA new so is the circuit board. Need to be careful dismantling the housing as the brass bushes tend to pull out. Someone in the US has replacement needles for the early /6 models.

Motorworks in the UK sell reconditioned speedos and Tachos on an exchange basis, but not cheap.
