    Harley Speedometer Date?

    I'm curious if this is a 1947 Speedometer. Any info would be great! Info on here is a lot more reliable then the internet, Thanks! Sorry if the image is sideways. IMG_4060.jpg

    No, it isn't. It is a '41-'46 type face, and appears to have been a civilian black face/chrome bezel type. See if the case has a code on the back.

        47 is a one year only unit.


        Notice the slits for the lighting are offset and not centered as earlier units were.

          I checked the numbers last evening. 509 DT J5, which I believe is May of 1941
