    I'm not familiar with the bike but if the top speedo casing is available from Honda, David Silver Spares should be able to sort one out for you.

    EDIT:

    Just found a photo:



    Looks like it's a sealed speedo so you may be out of luck there.

    yeah, agree with both these guys, (gal, sorry kymmy) ive never heard of being able to get just the glass as a spare.
    even if you do get a new glass its very difficult to get the speedo apart to change it, i nearly destroyed my XT speedo trying to change the face to mph.
    i would go with the diy option first, youve got nothing to lose if it doesnt work. get a piece of 1mm acetate or acrylic and pop it in, sealed up with a bead of clear bathroom sealant. if not then its a new speedo, im not sure but will it fail an mot for a broken instrument glass?

    I can assure you the face is made of glass - otherwise it would'nt of smashed in the first place .

    Most of the bikes with single units are sealed so a complete unit is the only option.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    yes the original might be made of glass, but how you going to put a new one in without dremelling out or crowbar opening the speedo? a thin acetate or acrylic will have a lot of give and should 'pop' into the groove left by the remains of your glass. imagine something like an O-ring groove
