Telling the time when riding...
I used to have an old keyfob with a digital watch glued onto it instead of the metal badge logo thing, if its a waterproof watch its fine in bad weather, I used this on two bikes for 10 years or more. What do the rest of you do for a timepiece? these ones you can buy look a bit pricey, I might just make another keyfob watch.

Re: Telling the time when riding...
I just look at the clock on the bike... you know, the one in the LCD panel that also shows engine temp etc.

Re: Telling the time when riding...
The method I use is as follows:
If its light then it is daytime If it is dark it is night time If you need a finer resolution that this it is also possible to discern the transition from dark to light and light to dark |

Cheap as chips casio digital watch fastened onto the top yoke.
Waterproof does the job. en4rab...that doesn't work when you say to the misses 'I'll be back in a couple of hours' Although she now knows to double it before starting to worry.
