Very interesting story on the Ody with the lights.....
The machine was never recalled.....so the upper air box, air guides, CDI, skid plate, and transmission gear kit were never replaced. It is a very low VIN number machine and ordered with all the Hondaline stuff.
What baffles me is the engine is a post-recall engine but it may be the 80mm bore.
Frame is borderline perfect and will remain in my personal collection after I restore it.
The speedo kit doesn't attach to the hub.... If you look at a 350 trans, there is a triangle cover on the clutch side in the middle of the trans. It is directly alligned with the reduction shaft gear inside. The kit replaces the that triangle cover and routes the cable up front. If you look at the frame there is a flat spot by the belt cover where you route the cable along the left side of the machine.
I have searched the globe for these parts, I know of only 4 speedo kits in existance and I own 3 of them.
The light kit is the holy grail.....
