Got a factory KPH/MPH gauge from another member. Keep the big MPH gauge or go with the factory one? If I keep the big MPH I will swap the straight speedo needle over to the big MPH.
Which one? (1 Viewer)

IMHO, I would go with the KPH/MPH one as it appears to give the best of both worlds. However, if you do choose to go with that one, I would wait exactly 14,760 kms from now to put it in, then the mileage will be the same!

I plan or switching the speedo plate since they are interchangeable
This is the best way to do it. In your case they are 100% interchangeable. I know you have experience removing the needle which is never fun to do.
Yes, absolutely... my comment was ''tongue in cheek'' 
Keep the other one for parts as those needles have a tendency to get faded and brittle, and can break, the spare gauges are nice to have as well. But I am speaking to a veteran to cruisin, so likely this was always the plan.

Swapped out
Very nice! The factory mpg / km/h is the way to go for sure… looks great!
How would one go about getting one of those ? Need that for my Hzj75

I think your HZ has a different style so not compatible with the 1985-1989. Don’t know if there ever was any 1990 and newer with KPH/MPH. Others here have been working on solutions
Thank you
I'll do some digging
Where can I find info on how to remove the needle from the speedometer gauge assembly? My needle has been circumsized, so this is on my list...
