On the page with the indicator lamp comparison....the speedo is NOT from a Z1A. More likely a Z1B.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

The stop light is located on the tach. The Z1A speedo shows speed in 20 mph increments, as does the Z1 speedo. The Z1B speedo shows speed in 10 mph increments.

The speedo in the photo shows 10 mph increments, hence is a Z1B speedo. The dash panel for the Z1B was the same as for the Z1A, but I suspect the photo is of a Z1B because of the speedo.

Edited to add that anyone wishing to learn about Z1 motorcycles should purchase a copy of John Brooke's book.



This photo shows Z1B gauges.
