    Yes definately Koso I`ve seen it on e-bay. Seems a nice little unit. Just wondering whether is best just to buy the chrome tacho version of mine to match speedo. They are very well made. Nice and small aswell.

    Yeah that'd look nice. I've been really happy with it as a unit. The only thing I couldn't figure out was how to get the indicator to flash on it. Currently they stay a solid colour but due to how bright the l.e.d.s are it isn't a problem.
    I like seeing different sized clocks too, seen some where they use a chrome clock with a smaller black one for example. Good piece of kit tho, defo recommend. Decent price too.

    Lol. Nice one.

    Look forward to seeing what you do with yours.

    If I can help at all just drop me a message. Some easy ways to do stuff. Wiring for example, you can move all the harness without cutting it anywhere to make it look neater.

    There's still bits I would like to do to mine but I'd have to sell organs etc...

    Thanks mate .. I'm into easy (and cheap) haha .. true ! Wiring .. no problem, magneto off Mercury outboard cures a lot of those problems ... but always open to others ideas ! It pays to remember that everything has been done in the past by some clever person ... I've got a great photo of the Wright brothers first flight.

    Not going to finish it now. probably going to sort my tools and then sell the old girl as part finished and garage contents. Got to bogged down with other stuff and garage so full can`t really move in there. I fully intend getting another Triumph a bit further down the road, just need to get things sorted. All good fun though and your bike looks excellent. Be fun in the sun

    Thanks. Shame about yours though. Always liked it. Moth ball the old beast o_O.

    Hoping to get down to the triumph factory at some point. Be a nice ride out taking it back there. Some little mods I still want to do but I want to get some miles done first then go from there. :cool:
