CJ speedometers & tank emblems
Gas tank emblems
You can never have too many gas tank swoosh emblems. Here's two sets that were printed on a foil substrate. (Holger)
Indeed a rarity—the CJ900 tank emblem!
Gerald tossed in a few emblems with my latest LRM parts order. One sheet contains three of these Shihu logos from the Nanchang CJ Machinery Building Company.
This is your basic CJ750 emblem. The colors here don't appear to be very vivid due to the protective film. This a really nice item, probably sort of rare nowadays.
This page of emblems contains five pieces! They're printed on a metalic substrate which my scanner didn't like. What appears grey here is actually more like silver foil.
This swoosh has a PLA emblem incorporated into the design! (LRM)
This Chang Jiang 750 swoosh was sent by DTE.
And this was sent by Li Yan at 750 Sidecar Craft.
You can never have too many swooshes on a CJ Web site. So here's another one. These are decals, however, not stickers. (LRM)
There are two main types of CJ750 gas tank emblems; stickers and decals. This one is a decal, impossible to remove.
This Chang Jiang emblem lacks the 750 designation. (Stephen Gaulin)
This Chang Hong emblem is from a set of three. (LRM)
Chang Hong swoosh on a bike in Finland. (Orvo Valila)
A Shihu swoosh from the Nanchang CJ Machinery Building Company. (LRM)
This Chang Dong swoosh appeared on the DTE water-cooled bike. XJ Motors uses it too. It's a great looking emblem.
Another Chang Dong swoosh. (Dirk Heck)
Chang Dong emblem on a plastic sidecar.
Chang Dong emblem on a water-cooled OHV CJ.
This Yang Zi Jiang emblem was on Peter Gray's M1. He recreated the design which we colored based on an educated guess.
This Xiangjiang swoosh is from an eBay Chang.
Butch sent this FengTong swoosh. They're "modernized" bikes with SV CJ engines!
Here's another FengTong swoosh from Nick Barton.
Speedometers
Here's an M72 speedometer.
This CJ speedometer has a different logo on it that most of us are familiar with. (Jay Williams)
This is REALLY NEAT! It's a CJ speedometer with Chinese characters on it. The H inside the trademark stands for Huangshan where high quality speedos were made before their tooling wore out. (LRM)
Here's another Huangshan but without Chinese characters. (LRM)
An earlier version of the Huangshan speedometer. Note the trademark.
These are the best speedos ever made for the CJ. The Chinese characters on the face are really cool. (LRM)
Here's the label from a case of HS speedometers. It dates to the early 1980s.
This a great speedometer with Chinese characters. It's from the Jiangxi [province] Electrical Calculating Machine Factory (roughly translated).
The lightning bolt logo is found on Jiangxi speedomters that came out around 1990. But there are some fakes around which have thinner lettering around the odometer. (LRM)
Another Jiangxi speedometer face. You see these on "authentic" R71s and M72s on eBay sometimes. Hmmm. My first CJ speedo lasted about 3500km. My second one less than 300! They were probably fakes.
Jiangxi logo from a CJ speedometer.
This is the box a Huangshan speedometer was packed in. It's dated December 30, 1970. The part reference number is ML-160. That's an interesting variation on the trademark. (LRM)
And this is a box cover from an original Huangshan speedometer. It was manufactured by the Huangshan Meter Factory. The enlarged image shows the entire cover. (LRM)
And here's a tag from a Jiangxi speedometer. (LRM)
