1981 Honda CB650 · Instrument Cushions & Covers Buying guide
The meter cushion has a two-per-bike application, one for each instrument. Genuine Honda chrome back covers have different references for speedometer and tachometer, so keep their positions identified.
The documented original-style arrangement uses one cushion for the speedometer and one for the tachometer. Count the replacements needed after inspecting both. A different gauge diameter or bracket may need other supports even when the motorcycle is the same year.
The genuine Honda speedometer cover lists 37236-426-000 among its references; the tachometer cover uses 37246-426-000. Compare shape and mounting with the old parts. Genuine manufacture does not establish fit for an aftermarket instrument housing.
The genuine Honda covers are supplied individually without meter cushions, bulbs, wiring or mounting hardware. Cushion 73-0096 is a separate individual part; the original gauge pair uses two. Inspect the support rubber as well as the visible chrome before choosing the repair.
First inspect the cushion for hardening, splits or compression, and check the brackets, sleeves, washers and fasteners. The rubber isolates vibration; do not crush it solid to take up movement. A new chrome cover does not restore a worn cushion.
That fit is not established by the original-housing application. Check the mini gauge’s dimensions and mounting instructions rather than assuming original support rubbers or chrome covers will fit.
