Handlebar Clock

[Sodbuster]

Just mounted a clock on the handlebars .... It's from Clocks4Bikes.  Very well made and goes on easy .... one setscrew on the bottom

Very clean looking.  Doesn't clutter up the handlebars. 

I've thought about getting something like that.  Can you see it at night....do they make ones that can be seen at night?

Yup .... they do have them with back lit face.  I wish I had a better picture of it on the bike. From the front of the bike the clock blends right into the handlebar. You can get them in polished aluminum or chrome .... I opted for the chrome for extra $5

Here's their wesite:

Sweet!

Looks nice    I also noticed your risers, what kind do you have and what is the additional pullback/lowering of the handlebars? 
Thanks,

Looks great!

I have that same clock AND the matching thermometer.  They are great!!!

Very timely as I am looking for this.  A couple questions....

1.  What size handlebar do you need to select to place the order? 
2.  Does the clock run off internal battery or wired to bike? 
3.  Is the backlit via a wire or is it a push button battery operated?

Thanks,

Viper

I have the clock and thermometer, both lit. They both use a little watch-type battery. My clock failed after a month, failed again after I replaced the battery, but the seller replaced it with no qualms. I have not had any problems since.

I would probably not order the lighted ones if I had it to do again, as I have not used that feature at all. The clock is great to have, but the thermometer does not seem very accurate.

I am pretty sure the company has mounts for various handlebars if you are not using the stock bars.

Don't know for sure what they are as they were on there when I bought the darn thing but they are VERY similar to these:

I measured mine and I come up with 2" pullback and 3 1/4" rise ??  Can't imagine NOT having them on .... very comfortable

I just ran across this old post, and have been looking for a clock.

I called and they are still in business, clock is being shipped today!

Thanks for the original post.

My clock and thermometer...

[MacDragon]

I have them (Clock and thermometer) on each side of the bars.  Clocks4bikes is a great vendor.  Ross and Linda Harjes make them and have customer service that can not be beat... They will replace your clock even if you lose it!!!
Have them on both my bikes and have bought other sets as gifts for friends.

My clock and thermometer...

I have that setup, the thermometer reads correctly after the bike cools down, reads high when going down the road, from the engine heat.  Hoser

Very nice looking.  Pretty spendy at $50, but they reportedly have great CS and that matters the most, I'm thinkin.  I installed a Klockit clock mounted in a socket wrench years ago for about $15 total, and it looks good, and illuminated it with a tiny light recessed into the handlebar right above it - http://www.horseapple.com/Valkyrie/Tech_Tips/Klockit/klockit.html

But I like the looks of this Clocks4Bikes setup for the thermometer, think I'll check that out.

Here's mine:

I have had the clock for about 5 years and like it very much. I have never had a problem with it yet. It is mounted the same as Sodbusters.

A guy on eBay sells these things... they incorporate into the windshield using the center bolt.

I got it about five years ago. Changed the clock battery twice... keeps decent time. I can't
really even make out the 10 degree increments on the thermometer, so it works plenty well
as good as it needs too
