White face gauge cover kit for Monster?

Has anyone found a source for white face gauge kits (just the gauge face not the whole gauge) for their monster?

I have a 620 and really like the look of the white gauges over the gray (but don't want to replace the whole cluster neither).

Those were the DP sets werent they? ( i had one that had no labeling and one from road racing, but as you noted they were for the older bikes ive never been able to track one down for the IE's)

also double check to make sure your guages can open. I dont think all of the IE gauges were that easy to open like the later generations.

Where did you get that plate to cover the bolt holes on the top triple? Did you make it? Look great man! [thumbsup]

Nice! yes that would be what I'm looking for (only in miles as opposed to kilometers per hour.

Dimk, did you get that from a private seller on ebay.de, or from a business on it. do you remember?  thanks.

The address is www.newtacho.de but i found it through ebay.de.Send the man a message and i think he can make them in MPH.The gauge cluster has two philips screws at the back ,one at the bottom and one torx in front(hidden under the center piece.The only tick part is taking the needles out,but the kit has instructions for that,using two spoons 8)

Thank you, Dimk!


I sent the gentleman an e-mail.  Let's see what he says...........apparently he can make any design. if he doesn't have it in the system, then he can make one based off of our own gauges we mail in to him.

Dude, post up his reply, if he can make that in MPh I would totally get it. Also, how does one remove the speedo needles in order to mount these?

To remove the needles first you remove the little center black hands.Then you place two little spoons under them and they pop up(do this gently)

so the guy responded, but they do not have a template for the speedo.

He said I can either scan the gauge and send to him or send him the gauges or face and they can make a template and give a quote.

Not sure If I'll go that route. if anyone is interested, their url is www.newtacho.de

If you are not up to it I can take mine apart again and do it.
I have been wanting all white face gauges for a while now.
