Anyone got a spare tach they want to sell? I slid out of a corner about 5 miles from home last Thursday. There was just enough sand and gravel (and speed) to make me slide off the road and onto a church's yard. Front tire caught a rut in the grass right off the road and the valk and I both took a tumble. Nothing but a few scrapes, bruises, and a kink in my back for me. (Chiropracter got the kink out) I was able to ride the bike home - had a few more curves left, and eased it up to 65 mph on a long straight - rode fine.
 As for the valk, the worst is a dinged up gas tank, but I just got one off of ebay for $250. Also got a back sissy bar from there too. But the tach got crunched and I haven't been able to find another one.
Didn't see one listed on HDL either (did I miss it?) I could also use a clutch reservoir. The place where the mirror bolts to broke - but both mirrors are undamaged! My headlight bezel is a little warped too. I can probably straighten it out, but if someone has a good looking spare they'd let go at a resonable price, I'd do it.
 Thanks in advance for any help, John

Headlight, check that the support behind the light isn't broken

Clutch master - Pinwall may have it but see price difference from new with freight charges

Mike, thanks for the links. I guess I need to print off the parts veiw and list and see what all I will need to fix my tach. I was hoping they would have a bolt on assembly - oh well. My handlebars look o-k to me and the headlight mount is o-k too. The front bezel on it is squashed down a little and the back housing may be a little too. I will probably buy the bezel and try to fix the housing. Looked at Pinwall for the clutch reservoir but they only had one and it was worse than mine  - and man, Honda sure is proud of theirs. Thanks again.
