Hello there folks, just been giving the blade engine a clean and was wondering should i use the bike clocks etc for the dash, or are there any other ones you can buy from some where?.

All sorts of clocksgauges available, I went for the Digidash from ETB instruments as everything is in one box.

Can you give this one a clean, while you`re at it

I`m going to try and use the bike clocks, to save on cost and keep things simple?

We used the bike clocks and our's were pre-'95 and we think they look great in the dashboard. It depends solely on your budget and what you want from it all... we used them purely because we wanted to. All the stuff it already there! Just add a few bits ie handbrake warning light, hazards and your almost there!

If you are using the digital one's - they look very nice and also incorporate a fuel level too! Nice....

HTH

Think i will use the standard clocks, and i dont fancy any more cleaning.
Not used any abrasives yet just some stuff called muckoff, used it on my fireblade and on the car.

No abrasives!
Can`t have needed cleaning that badly then

Seriously, never heard of Muckoff, though my wife says I mention it often enough?

Think bloke who had bike before it was stripped looked after it well.


welderman - 21/11/04 at 11:39 PM

ReMan - 21/11/04 at 11:43 PM

With difficulty, which is why I have to keep changing my avatar

Use the attachment section at the bottom of the reply window. Click the browse button and find your picture, jpeg or gif I think, then post.
