Expensive part to replace... touratech computer is even more I think.

I have never had the need to replace the dash or screen so old for new will be expensive but maybe you can try 2nd hand? With so many bikes there have to be wreckers that have this part somewhere...

I think the problem is that the dash is made to be waterproof (read resistant) and replacing just the screen would invalidate this.

Have you dug around the other forums for just GSs, like Ukgser?

Good luck.
