Dual Binnacle converted to single?

[Rich Hargis]

Picked up a 2007 Suzuki DF200 that was part of a twin engine set up.The guy gave me 2 each of gauges and ignition switches,along with a dual binnacle control. Can I just seperate the units and buy a single cover for it?

Thanks

yes and no.
you have to shift some parts from the second box. the side part that the mounting screw goes through.
then it will work.

Decided to take the dual binnacle apart today. It is basiclly 2 single binnacles bolted together.One side is the rigged the proper way,the other is a mirror image of the first one.All I have to do is reverse a few pieces and I will have 2 single binnacles. I ordered a single cover for it. So I saved a couple of hundred dollars from buying a single and have a spare to boot.I removed the Yamaha binnacle and noticed it is exactly the same as the Suzuki except for the handle.

Thanks for the reply Rodbolt
