Z1000J electronic speedo cable guide?

#1 PostAuthor: rickm » Thu Jan 20, 2022 4:41 pm

My 1981 J has the original electronic speedo.
Where the cable exits the sender from the wheel hub I recall there should be a cable guide holding the cable away from the wheel to prevent it rubbing.
I don't have this part and can't find it on a parts finder and cannot get a decent photo of it either.
Could somebody with a standard J with electronic speedo please send me a good picture of one and where it should attach. I may have to fabricate something that works.

Looks like CMSNL may have one for 12 funny moneys.

Blimey, that's a bit of a convoluted affair !
IIRC does it bolt to the calliper bracket ?
Don't suppose anyone's got one they want to sell ? (amongst their stash of hen's teeth and rocking horse pooh)

Same as what's on the gpz1100 b1. It bolts to a very small hole on the underneath it the caliper. Took me ages to work out how it fitted.
