Laverda ND speedo and tach rubbers new contact.

[minigunz]

So my 1972 SF 750 rubber bulb sockets were so decomposed that they pulled out of my Instruments in pieces.
I went back the search the forum history and found that Guage repair company cb750faces.com.
Info@cb750faces.com Georg) replied to me and gave me a new Address to contact.
He has the Laverda socket rubbers you still need the reinstall your original bulb and socket back into the wire holes.
the site again is being built and the address is:
Tachowerk.de. is all I got from him.
These are reproduction I am sure but fresh rubber is better than nothing for now.
DHL is holding up any shipping to the grand Trump usa borders, (ugg)
My project is on hold until this part can be found elsewhere.
Any thoughts?

Pretty sure Diaper Donny is targeting Japan as well in his blind, imperialistic rage.

Surely there has to be a Honda restorer somewhere in the US... ?

Honda bulb sockets are 1 mm too small and fall out of the holes.
Good try. but I will be happy to get the correct parts.

I had the same problem. I just put 3 layers of heat shrink on the bulb holders and they fit in the holes firmly. It'll do for now until I get around to having the gauges restored, if ever. For the SFC I plan to change out the ND gauges and go to euro spec.
I have like half a dozen rubber fittings, some harder than others but changing them seem like the too hard basket so came up with the heat shrink idea and it works.

Sometimes I wish they would fall out instead of clinging to the speedo base like limpets

Yes CB750 sockets with 1/2" heat shrink worked just fine, back in order
thanks for the reply

And they'll probably be a lot easier to remove after years in the gauge with heat shrink c/w the rubber.
