Diesel, is it a 100 mph or 120 mph speedo ?
Does it say Harley-Davidson on it ?

If you're lucky and the speedo is still original and fairly clean you should be able to read the ink stamp on the back of the housing, that code will tell you when the unit was made. Let us know what you find out.

Re: stewart warner police special speedo ?s
Well according to the chart its a 540 an L12 which translates to 540an model made december 1967. Kinda a bummer but pretty cool anyways. Its in exceptional shape the face is not faded at all the trim is still shiney no pitting and the glass has no scratches. the ink stamp is dark and clear to read. thanks for the help!!
