Does anyone have a knob off the speedometer for sale/old gz they could take it off of? I did not see the part in the parts manual. So if anyone has one please let me know! Thanks.

The knobs are not only notorious for breaking off but also for simply failing to grab the little gears inside.
Try some epoxy and maybe half of golf tee just to make sure the mechanism still works.

You may have to replace the whole speedometer... But I don't have any first hand experience.

Yeah.
The knob is on a little shaft. If it breaks off, you can extend the shaft and make your own knob... like the fat end of a golf tee.

I actually need the whole thing. The shaft is missing too. So i guess if anyone has a old speedometer for sale please let me know.
