They're of the same rarity value as rocking horse doodoo, only once in a blue moon do they come up on Ebay.

When the naked SV crashes on the left, the clocks normally touch down and are often smashed to pieces. Luckily mine were only grazed and I ordered the chrome plastic cover from a dealer, but it could have been much worse.

Good luck in finding some ;).

Get some K3 clocks & fit 'em - Big Ape's got 'em on his curvy & they're OK ;)

Yes but they don't work perfectly as there's some electrickery differences.

DonnieJ, I have done exactly the same!
I got a smashed up set off ebay (still £40, dirtydog take note!!), and lopped off the rev counter.

Before cutting it up I checked for the price of the two white plastic back sections....erm £45 & £15. Holy S***!!!!!

I've just checked this price on Ronayers.com. $45 & $12. Hmmmmm.......

Mr. Suzuki, you have a nerve!

Both sets that I've hacked up cost me ~$25 each :D

I'm now working on a revised version, I have some pics of it while I was making a paper mock-up (below). I now have it made out of sheet metal but it's not finished yet.
