Right after the forum member Mr Fen succesfully made an order with Lockwood dials to create a full set of clock/dial facias for the tahco, temp and speedo guage in white, i contacted lockwood after he sold out, as i was interested but missed the boat so to speak.

however i have a spare tacho and temp gauge and it isnt easy to change the facia on these at all but its a peace of pish on the speedo,

SO

who is interested in just MPH conversion dial covers to match the other clocks so you only need to change the KPH/Speedo to suit,

Clive at lockwood has quoted me "we can do the 20 dials for £26.00 (inc vat) each"

so thats a minimum order of 20 before they will create them, bare in mind prices of things have gone up etc and this quote is just for the speedo replacement and not the full set of 3 like Mr Fen did, also these will be Black Back, MPH in White and KPH in either Red or Grey we need to get this decided before ordering.

im keen to get a speedo cover, however i dont have the brass spare to front up £520. so will need 20 people for this to happen.

put your name down if interested.

Thanks Guys

Ricky

Edit: Change Title to attract more interest maybe?

very interested i sent them an email to them asking if they would do that, one day before this post

Hi, a while you created some replacement dials for a Honda VFR 400 motorcycle, I was wondering if you could make a one-off speedometer dial?

I have a picture of the template i believe you created attached.
I would like the following changes:
the white background to black,
the black writing (MPH) to white,
the red writing (KPH) to a light grey
I have also attached a picture of some dials which hopefully you can match the colour off.

I only need the speedometer
"

Ricky,

I'd definitely take a couple (a spare will always come in handy for the next one )

Cheers!

no problem dude but we need a minimum order before we can proceed with an order

and right now i dont have the finance behind me to do this.

Im interested too Ricky, is there any budging on the minimum orders? surely he knows himself people will be after these?

Will the be in standard black backing?

any pics of the final look?? may be interested,

May be interested here...would like to see a visual first before committing though...

£26 for one piece?

I paid less than that for a complete kit for the 24

there is no visual to show becuase they havent been made

this will be a for a direct replacement for the KMPH Dial/Facia,
same colour so that it matches the tacho and temp gauge which you have to damage/bastardise to replace the dials on

it will be the same as the UK NC30 Speedo.

the UK NC30 clocks as a rule go for about £50-60, and incresing (there like rocking horse shit)

we need an order of 20 to get them made and as i said in the first post thats £520 alot of corn for someone to buy outright so unless we have 20people in on it, this WILL NOT be happening.

im not a shop, buisness etc im like you a person that owns an NC30 and also has a family to support and £520 isnt something i have spare kicking about.

i think i need to change the title becuase id imagine there is a demand for these here, i mean id sooner do away with my Blue converter and be able to see my speed better because at present the 30mph (without the converter would be 30kmph) is quite hard to see becuase its low down and you have to peer over, but with the replacement dial the 30mph will be much higher up

any suggestions on what i should change the title to attract more people wanting them

Rick

Mr_Fen made the last order with Lockwood a few years back and sold a set of three WHITE dials for £30 delivered,

but times have changed and lockwood want £520 for 1 dial only but to be honest to change the tacho and temp gauge is a bitch ive tried with a broken spare and you have to ruin the clocks in my opinion.

heres the pics that lockwood made of the original WHITE order
