CB750 Clock Refurb Jig/Tool

Rubber strip was from ebay - I had it hanging around in the garage

philward:
Actually James, your right, it was more of a foam tape

philward:
Clocks are on and now I've got a reasonably accurate rev counter! Repo rev counter read 5000 rpm at 50 MPH! It did its job though - it got me on the road while I was expensively refurbing the original clocks.
My only regret was not putting the speedo stickers on the milometer numbers - just a bit yellow. Seemed a bit messy to do but what do they say - adds to the platina! (probably spelled that wrong)

oh the joys of restoring old bikes - just went out to test the new progressive fork spring (which where better but nothing to rave over) and as the bikes done about 500 miles opened it up a bit but the speedo sticks at 60! I think the needle might slightly bent up and maybe glass slightly out of kilta with needle spindle - another winter strip down! Rev counter suddenly started wavering as well but will check cable as had that off since last ride. AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm surprised that you didn't notice much of a difference. mine dives less under braking and is more stable when cornering.
The needle can come off after being disturbed mine came of twice after dismantling and it was reading about 150mph
