Title: Clock on your bike??? Post by: sbui on June 29, 2009, 03:09:58 PM Every once in a while, I'm always curious to know what time it is when I'm riding. Since I wear a my jacket and the wrist is always covered up, I don't know what time it is. So I made a solution.
(http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k244/shermanbui/IMG_9895.jpg) The watch was a gag gift for Father's day a couple of years ago.. How many of you guys out there sometimes wonder what time it is when your riding??? Title: Re: Clock on your bike??? Post by: Fresh Pants on June 29, 2009, 03:14:23 PM I always wonder what time it is. No clock either. ;)
My KTM has clock functionality in the computer, so I don't have to worry about it then. I've thought about some stick on clock or an old watch too. But for now I'll make due until I find something I like. Title: Re: Clock on your bike??? Post by: MrFryMoto on June 29, 2009, 03:15:45 PM my old bike (03' 620) had a digital clock on it so when i got the 'new' one (00' 900) i was lacking a clock
i ended up finding a deal on ArtsCow.com (i think) and i had them print up a pocket watch with the ducati logo and i velcroed it to the same place you did couple thousand miles on it and still going strong [thumbsup] (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v636/Deadmr2/Forum%20Stuff/IMG_5291.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v636/Deadmr2/Forum%20Stuff/IMG_5292-1.jpg) Title: Re: Clock on your bike???

Since I wear a my jacket and the wrist is always covered up, I don't know what time it is. So I made a solution. What I like about this watch, is you can also figure out math problems, WHILE knowing the time.(http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k244/shermanbui/IMG_9895.jpg) The watch was a gag gift for Father's day a couple of years ago..

It wasn't a gag back then.

Got spoiled long ago with my R90S in 1974 that came with a VDO Clock. Gentleman's express. That's kinda how the S4RS feels - a gentleman's express. [moto] Comes with a clock.

Title: Re: Clock on your bike??? Post by: desmodue on June 30, 2009, 11:17:03 AM I just bought a cheap Timex Indiglo®, filed the watch band tabs off, dabbed a spot of silicone on the back and stuck it on the clutch master cylinder cap. I tried to get a watch face that matched the Veglia Speedo/Tach faces. you would be surprised how many people think the clock is OEM.

The Internet has shown me there is a website for everything. I had originally seen a nice looking on at twistedthrottle.com, but they don't appear to be selling them any longer.

Post by: CairnsDuc on June 30, 2009, 03:23:45 PM I have just recently installed a Clock radio on my bike, it took me seconds to develop a Mounting system to ensure correct time readout, Decent Radio Reception and little to no risk of Damage to the Machine or Rider...
What do you think? (http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg286/SpankyMK/DSC01607.jpg?t=1246407606) The cost of the Electrical Extension leads is killing me though :'( Title: Re: Clock on your bike???

Title: Re: Clock on your bike??? Post by: Scotzman on June 30, 2009, 07:22:42 PM I'm working on hooking this to my cell phone to text. Plus it has knuckle guards.
