As one or two of you may know i completely bolloxed the dials on my bean shape clocks last weekend. Has anybody used the dial overlays that are on ebay, they look a bit of bodge but just wondered?

Got a set waiting for this to be done. Have done it in the past to convert kmh clocks to mph and looks fine.
Just don't show the back lighting as good at night.

got mine of norbo, snapped my needles getting them off, bought a cheap clock from poundland, reshape them with a file, sprayed them, and glued them on, so was pleased with the end result.

The latest issue in Practical Sports Bikes has an article on restoring clocks - looks pretty easy to follow (just like Haynes)!
