What is the diference between those instrument panels? I have seen in the parts manual and wonder what have been changed? I thought they all was like.
81 and 82 has 8m6-77711
83 and 84 has 8u9-77711
85 has 80n-77111

not sure if they are mechanically different but i know the 81 goes to 10000 on the tach i assume the 82 does to... and the guage faces look different... but i imagine they are interchangable

Know that the temeratur gauge changed in 84, but the tach isnt in the instrument panel. I did use the word from the parts manual, but as i would say it is the tank cover.
The tach goes to 12000 at 81 and 82, and the spedo to 120 miles or 200 km/t(mine)

oh the tank cover! hmmmm never really compared those... im thinking after 84 they ditched the tether... and at least in 86 there was the fuel shutoffs on the tank cover... also 86 on would have snaps for the seat cover i imagine... i dont see why you couldnt swap them around if you wanted

Yes you have right. The 80n tank cover has not the hole for the tether. Now i see the difference between those.
The difference between the 81/82 and the 83/84 are the hole in the front of the tank cover, where the rubberflap shall be(over the airbox), and the 85 did not have the hole for the tether.
Thanks Tyler 440.

The 85's on up used the T.O.R.S. (carb shut offs) instead of the tether cord !

The only difference between the 81 SRX & the 83 Vmax is the hole for the choke cable, the SRX is a little smaller, the decals are of coarse different also..
