Default Speedo light

Was riding along the other night and suddenly I have no light on my speedo, only the rev counter, so I have no idea how fast I'm going!

How on earth do I get the speedo light working again?!

And replacing the bulbs on a curvey is a briliant job involving removing all the fairing and clocks.

You are part right there, my bulbs have all blown in the speedo/tacho, have not bothered to change them for over 4-5 months. Now i have no speedo for the last week as i have not installed the magnets onto the disks (GSXR speedo kit).
