Firsetorm Clocks / Gauges

[bealsey]

Evening all,
I am now looking for some original clocks as I am fed up of trying to get the Sp1 dash working properly.

Thanks.

I have several sets with different mileages £35 a set delivered.

Excellent I will take one please Derek, don't mind mileage as long as its in good condition with all the tabs intact.
Do you have paypal?

Cheers.

What's the issue with the SP clocks. Is it the rev counter or speedo?

What you after for the sp dash ?

It is the Rev counter and the temperature, I know I can change the sensor for the temp but the rev counter is really annoying!

[VTRDark]

I have some CBR clocks to fit and this is what concerns me. I'm not worried about the numbers placement and redline being different as this can be sorted with an overlay or new plastic face plate being made, but it has to work. Speedo can be fixed with a speedo heeler but as longs as the revs works in conjunction with the speedo I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth all the hassle.

Will later storm digital clocks fit an early model storm ok?
If not what are the issues?

you'd have to sort out a late model temp sender, because its digital, as it the fuel level indicator.

They shouldn't be an issue if you have a later tank with float and the later temp sender unit. The plugs on the back of the clocks may be slightly different but that's not much of an issue and IIRC there's a few extra wires to do with the HISS that can just get blanked off. Certainly a lot easier than clocks from another bike because the rev counter and speedo will be in the same range.

Cheers AP & Carl, just toying with what to use on the fighter with the 16l tank

It is pretty frustrating that I can't get the rev counter to work as the sp1 clocks are perfect for the job, the rev counter goes up and down when you start it but that's it! I think it's because the sp1 gets its single from the ecumenical, no-one has got it to work with firestorm that I know!
