After binning my gf's SV, I have managed to source all parts except for a set of clocks. I don't even want to imagine how much a new set would be from Suzuk so if anyone has a spare set, mileage not important.
Don't get your hopes up, they're as rare as rocking horse poo. Price from Suzuki (including sall the bits and bobs) is approx £400 I believe. Good luck though.
What exactly is wrong with them, is it just the shiny covers or are they totally trashed?

Does this answer the question :cry:
That's why I have a broken coccyx
I've just won a slightly damaged set from Yorkshiregooner on ebay (cheers m8)
If I can salvage most of what's there I should save a few quid hopefully.

Think the tank could do with a bit of filler. You don't mind having a two litre tank capacity do you. :shock:
Oh and I used to have a set of clocks that looked just like that. Have you considered fitting a pointy naked clock :?: That's what I have done.
Nah, they're not too bad, it'll polish out :wink:. Oh well, hope your Ebay find will do the trick.

Didn't know you could do that, what else would I need apart from the clocks, did you have to fabricate a bespoke mounting bracket?
The bracket that held the original clocks on can be modified. Only thing that does not work on the pointy clock fitted to the curvy SV is the fuel injection system check warning. It says "check" all the time. But then it would wouldn't it. Also the tacho needle goes a haywire. Other than that everything else works fine. The only other difference is the fuel light.
Curvy models have two sensor wires going to feed the clock. Flashing warning and solid. The pointy ones only have one wire. So I have the higher fuel level warning wire connected.
Ooof! :shock: Scary seeing a bike the same as mine in such a state :(
Good luck with your search...
