    Has anybody had any luck disassembling the apparently sealed tach or speedo for the Seca 650? I have a couple of each is various states of not working but have not been able to get them apart. They appear to be well sealed and I would rather not do them terminal damage in disassembly. Yes I know the Maxim instruments are easily taken apart.

    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks JeffK. I was convinced the bodies of the tach & speedo were glued or screwed together. Upon further, closer, examination you are correct. The face plate is crimped on. With about an hour's worth of slowly prying the ring open I was able to separate the pieces. This tach is from what I suspect was a flood bike. The bits all move but are corroded. There will be nothing lost attempting to clean all the bits. Stand by for results.
    Thanks again. And that is a great avatar!
