Fitting them involved taking the gauges apart which wasnt the easiest of things to do but thankfully I didnt break anything and they are still working today.
Very easy to read during the day and at nighttime they give off a sweet dark green glow (which I may add it farkin impossible to photograh accurately).
Mate,
How long ago did you get these? I have been looking everywhere and I can not find anything on ebay

I had some on mine, got them from the UK. I only ended up using the Tacho. One because I like the one black one white look, and two because the ZX-9R logo was the "B" model style not the C
May still have the speedo one lying around in the shed. Probably will find it one day

Love the work your doing !
I'm particularly interested in the USD radial mount forks transplant.
I suspect that the E series ZX9 shared the same front end. Not sure.
Why didn't they continue with USD forks from the early ZX9s ?
