Got clocks off ebay!!! here is a link to them
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SVA-DIGITAL-SPEEDO-QUAD-MOTORBIKE-KITCAR-WESTFIELD-ATV_W0QQitemZ350049860096QQihZ022QQcategoryZ36628Q QrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp163 8Q2em118Q2el1247

as far as fitting them goes they were pretty straight forward came with easy to follow instructions. they are still a slight working progress though because the clocks do not show the Rev's or Fuel as those parts of the Digi's were not as easily joined together with the SV and when i had the Rev counter working the Speedo kept sending a signal to the CDi which kept blowing it. I went through 3 CDi's before managed to solve the problem. but in solving the problem it meant no more rev counter. however speedo, Neutral light, Oil light, indicator lights and Dipped and main beem headlight indications all work lovely and the dials really look good at night

I'm not fitting one to an SV, fitting it to a CBR mate. But will keep you updated if I do get one. Keep checking the thread in my sig mate.

Nice wan, be interested to see if this could be seated in to the sv clocks surroundings , might take some working and filling tho.

we'd better go to our own thread on this

TBH I think you were asking a tad too much for your bike as a starting bid(no insult intended) on ebay, people on there tend to like to see a lower start and bid higher. Maybe as a private sale you can put a price on like that, but I would have my reservations about the clocks thing. I payed £1800 for my faired 2000 last yr, and there wasn't anything I'd question about it.
I have seen the digital clocks on Slim666 nakid curvy. I didn't think it looked that good, but it served a purpose. The only reason he had one was because his electrical system blew up on the motorway and nakid clocks are like dinosaur teeth

It is a nice bike with what you have done, haope you sell

Yeh i placed the Bike on at that price simply because i weren't exactly sure weather i wanted to sell it. i love the bike and have done so much to it that i was unsure bout selling it but figured if someone pays anything from 1800 upwards i would let it go cause that would be too good to turn down!! I've managed to sell the bike to a guy on ebay for 1800... i hear what your saying about the clocks my friend but these clocks look much better than the standard SV clocks and the way i have them sitting inside the headlight fairing looks great.

Well if Ter wants to come help me rewire mine, I'll happily provide Coffee and biscuits and a few quid. Pretty much sorted how to get it all away just not too confident at rewiring. *hopes he is reading this*

You caught me reading it!!

Plowsie, PM me and let me know what you have.

That was the second Koso I fitted with a 'custom mount' (read as wads of fibreglass!) and I'm about to change the front of my SV too!

Have I read correctly that you now have a CBR? Which one?

If anything start up an new thread in and I'll try to help as much as I can!

Hopefully I'll have a piccy of my front end up in a few weeks if I find the time!

:cool:
