Title: Clocks
Post by: Tman on September 10, 2016, 11:13:00 AM

Hi all, anyone know when Honda went from Nippon Seiki clocks to Nippon Denso (ND) clocks on the Fours? I reckon about 1972 ish but stand to be corrected.

It depends on what clock, country and model.

I would have thought that Honda would have only ever used one supplier at a time across the ranges, but how about a '78 CB550?

Both use the same clock Graham, the blue facia type. The F1 had the green facia,  they were Nippon Sieki

You are totally correct Ken, was having a blonde moment ;)

So to be clear, the blue face is the ND?
