i have a tyga/yamamota now, its fantastic exhaust just loud, and i want a longer carbon one to hopefully bring the noise down and it will start to look a bit like my Suzuka Replica :D

I have recieved the proof image for us to consider.

i have mixed emotions as i like the look, but id like the mph and kmh moving down

also maybe the addition of an extra 20mph onto it taking it to 140mph

bare in mind the uk mph clock is a different positioning to that of a jap kmh speedo facias see images to decide,
i need responces quick time as im out the office tomorrow as the shits hit the fan and im back on the tools for a day :(

The MPH/kph definitely need to be moved down, and it needs to go to at least 150mph like the UK clocks do IMHO...

What you need to remember is to get an extra 30mph on these clock the needle is going to be fully round, and then its going to look odd, the original mr FEN dials were only to 125mph,

the gear ratio of the kmh to the mph is different hench the different position of the uk clocks,

im hopefing for a mass decision,

I agree that the mph/kph is too close. But I think that making it to 150mph is gonna make it like a clock face.

Surely it doesnt need to go over 70mph, after all that's the law, right ? :whistle:

whats the deal with the little lines just past 0 ? Dont need them, kinda look a bit untidy... or is that too picky, thats the first thing that caught me eye. And then my eye followed around where the needle would go. And....

The 100 is too close to the odo, it makes the KPH dial look squared off, could just be an optical illusion.
60 kph looks odd too, if you compare with the 2nd pic,not all the speeds in KPH are on the dial, because they would interfere with the other numbers. I think they need to take a lead from that.

As a first draft, its good, but It needs work... Also can they put England Seiki on it. My Japanese one has Nippon Seiki. As it makes me laugh when I see it, Seiki has lots of meanings in Japanese, one of them is Genitals. It makes me laugh when I look at it.. I'll get my coat :ban:

I KINDA THINK 120 IS OK AFTER LOOKING AT THEM

NOT SURE BUT I THINK THE FIRST LINE IS 5MPH

I DONT THINK THERE IS ANYWAY AROUND THIS

I THINK THIS IS JUST SILLY? THE UK ONE DOESNT HAVE ANYTHING ON IT
