Speedo needle won't come off help

Post by Swordfish93 »

Hello, I have a 1983 westy (1.9dg) the speedo is removed and I am trying to remove the needle but it will not come off. I have been prying at this thing with plastic spudgers and flatheads but it won't come off. Is this normal? Is there a trick I am missing something?https://imgur.com/a/McHm5o0
