  • Speedometer Question

    I recently came across two identical speedometers. They both have "Police Special" in the center and along the bottom Stewart Warner as the manufacturer.
    There is not any specific motorcycle manufacturer logo i.e. H-D, Indian, etc., on the face although they look like H-D style speedometers to me.
    Any ideas on what they were used on? Thanks for any help.

    Most likely mid '60s H-D. Two screws on the faces? 100 or 120 MPH?

      Was the Police Special speedometer available to any customer? I've wondered because I have seen so many at swap meets over the years.

        No, they were part of the police package. But keep in mind police business was H-Ds primary business in the '60s so there were a lot of police bikes in the used market and many went to the chopper scene.
