Hi guys,

Got an ebay deal ending soon that looks good on a non abs instrument cluster to replace mine (an ABS bike). Bad idea? Will it work? Just getting desperate to not pay $500 at this point.

if the one you are looking at on e-bay is the 1985 cluster, It will not work on anything later then 1985. There was a change in 1986 so it will not work on the K75.

You can make an offer on this one and maybe get it for a good price.

Thanks guys, you saved me about $80. Much appreciated. The one I was looking at was a 87, not the 85. It would be for my 92, so no work.

Update: I found a guy in town who has a very reasonably priced 1995 ABS unit, will this fit the 92?

My guess would be that the '95 version will be abs 2 and yours is an abs 1 so it won't be interchangeable.

Keep looking.

They never put ABS II on K75s.

Something about the speedo changed for the 94 and 95 model years. Not sure what though. I think that one might work for you but I couldn't guarantee it.

Looks like we're in conflict. I ordered the thing too.
Hope you're kidding, assuming you're not.

UPDATE: They had two.
