Question. I am missing the ODO assy on this bike. Did the 1990 model come with just the square black resettable ODO only?

You may also consider a Trail Tech computer/odometer. They have all the usual odometer functions plus some extras like average speed. Not too pricey and pretty simple to install with a disc brake setup.

That '89 odometer looks great compared to the giant electronic brick that was on my '87 KDX200.

I photoshopped my KDX to look like this

But I don't want to use paint because that wil crack or damage and it wil look even more awfull then before..
