The thought of you having a tank porn evening has just made me throw up Ash :-)....
Think I will get all of my paintwork out of the loft on Tuesday night when missus is out at pub quiz, lay it out in the lounge and have a 'Tank porn' evening
All sounds like a fun evening to me Showing my ignorance here Ash, what is JDM ?
A very kind person on here sold me a NOS 'up to speed' lamp off one of those JDM 500's James. It comes with the head stem nut and a really long sleeved rubber lamp holder that slots into the top yoke stem tube. My speedo has a little inductive switch inside, adjustable on a quadrant . The inductive switch is broken by a 'flag' attached to the rotating 'eddy current' aluminium disk driven by the magnetic drag. There is a little potted circuit board inside the speedo that conditions the sensor and drives the lamp. When the speedo gets to a certain speed level the light comes on. I told the instructor at a speed awareness course I was on that if my car had a light like that on it, as is fitted to my 1968 Honda, I wouldn't have got caught out . Didn't go down too well Do you have the JDM circuit diagram for the 500 James? .. I think some Honda's have a little round module that does the pickup conditioning. I have one that came off a JDM CB175

Wow in 1968 that's impressive. Good old Honda.
