Better?

Do you need the bolt fella? I just bolted mine up with one bold and ran the cable through the other without the bolt. There was absolutely no way that light would spin.

Tell me to feck right off but it looks a little like you've solved a problem that doesn't exist .. :hide

Stick it up your Turkey's bum.... Might be useful!!!
Or is it for measuring the circumference of a German sausage?
Just my suggestions- Happy Christmas Mikey ;-)). !

That thing is a computer designed compass, probably designed on architectural Autocad if the drawings I've had to take quantities off are any guide!

That's where it lives!
The lathe is ex school so it has a chuck guard ,it can't be turned on with the key in situ

Thanks for the safety advise though :thumby:

Well some of you don't like my choice of speedo :confused:

Seeing it in situ may change your thoughts

What you can't see in the pics till its powered up is it has a built in odometer,plus warning lights for neutral,oil pressure ,and indicators

mikeyboy · Dec 24, 2015

Made some new stainless engine mounting bolts

mikeyboy · Dec 24, 2015

New spokes arrived today,so I have fitted new wheel bearings and built up the rear,
Just needs truing up and the bearings shimming

And there's me thinking it was an Anal Probe for cooking your turkey.....
But 200mph - isn't that a tad optimistic?!
Have to admit that really it does look pretty smart. Reminds me a bit of speedo on my old
R50. Look forward to seeing the finished bike in the flesh sometime.
