Hi fellow 305 home-boys,
Happy 2011 <edited from 2012>
I'm trying to decide if I should hunt for a NOS or replica gasket for my 66 CB77 speedo/tach. It's the oval one (5' x 3.5").
It's called Speedometer packing: p/n 37242-268-020. The existing one is intact ... mostly but for 40+ years of dried-outness, and I'm guessing it won't dampen vibrations or block moisture and rain anymore.
I'm pretty sure I can find some square rubber gasket materials and fabricate one, but thought I would ask here before charging on ahead.
Ohio Cycle doesn't have one, not did I see one recently on eBay.
Thoughts??
Be well and have a great New Year!!!!!!!

Dana, I hate to be the bringer of reality, but you're in PST time zone, which is UTC -8, not +8760! So, Happy 2011 (what are you on, mate?)
I had one of these packing gaskets, NOS, sent to me by mistake by an eBay seller when I bought her NOS complete instrument which had one attached, so I sent it back to her. I'll PM you her email; she's not been on eBay since so she just might still have it.
