I must be getting old..... I want a clock on my bike

Occasionally I use the bike for work and I just can't handle not knowing the time any more. Anyone know of any cool bike clocks?

It's for a Hornet, but it must must look good. I'm not quite ready for beige trousers just yet.

Note to self, must find more important things in life to worry about

I got a clock (about the size of a 50P coin) from Motrax. It was £20 but its tough. I have wached it with a pressure washer and it still works. You can mount it as it has a bracket and there are sticky pads also.

These topics are getting scary. Can't you guys use your red indian skills and read the position of the sun in the sky.......


Or rely on a phone call from the missus reminding you that you are 45 minutes late getting home!!

(Yes, I need one too)

I have one on the Suzuki as well, but it keeps resetting itself back to 1 o'clock!

No, this has to look superfly cool... If a clock on a bike can ever be cool.

You have to be approaching 40 to understand

I seen this online. Dont know if your any good at welding, but you could make up a little bolt on clip for this clock.

If your looking for something a little more classy try here www.accessoryinternational.com/rizomaclocks.htm, I bought my visors from them but they are in the states so you would have to wait on delivery.

Custom Wizard in Sheffield flog Highway Hawk clocks online - see www.custom-wizard.com/acatalog/Custom_Wizard_Menu_Watch_464.html

I've used them a few times and they seem to be a pretty efficient company.

FYI: Your compass description is incorrect, you have the black face compass listed as white face...
