Hi guys, well I'm still slowly working my way though the new bike, lots of stuff being sorted and changed, but super happy with it.
Just noticed my rev counter has no needle, is it repairable, as iv never had lc clocks apart.
Cheers Dave.

Hi, I can highly recommend Shaunthe2nd, a long time well respected member on this forum.
He refurbished 2 sets of clocks for me and I’m extremely happy with the results. Good bloke to deal with too.
Good luck with the bike. bezzer

I agree with bezzer,i just send 2 sets of clocks to Shaunthe2nd and they have both come back this week fully refurbed and ready to go.A+ job on both.
Communication was excellent, turn around time was as stated & he was great to deal with.

Yes I can sort that for you, have some spare needles and we'll used to opening and repairing these. |

Alan did a great effort with them, but you still need to bond them to a central boss as they only the orange part of the needle, and they are too 'orange' compared to the originals so you need to fit to tacho and speedo at the same time if you want a matched pair.
I have a few I trialled for him and bonded to the boss which if anyone would like I'd let go for a nominal sum, but most my customers prefer original style although I can only provide S/H ones as can't find new, but actually this is OK as most have faded a bit since 1980s so match OK.
