Anyone know what these guages are off of?

These guages are on my 1980 cb750k but I dont think they are original. All the models I see photos of dont have anything like these. Does anyone out there know what year and what bike they might have come from?

The tach looks like the stock unit.  The speedo I have seen before I think it is from a different year / model cb.  I love the look of the speedo, wish I could find a tach & speedo with that face.

I am probably switching it out to a different one. The needle on the tach is bent and so it is rubbing against the glass which causes it to not react quickly. It still works just a bit slow. If i change it out I will let you know in case you are interested in it. Thanks to all for the advice.

I had the same needle problem with my tach.  I pulled mine apart & took the glass off.

i started to but half way through it looked like the glass was sealed to the housing. Couldnt figure out how i was going to seperate them so I put it back on.

You have to remove the black ring, its crimped on.  So use a small screwdriver & gently pry all the way around the gauge. Check out this link
