I have one like that, with its matching thermometer, also on eBay. It keeps time well, and the battery is easy to replace. Or, you could get one of the $50-$60 ones from JPCycles https://www.jpcycles.com/motorcycle-handlebar-mounted-accessories. |

Or you could wear a watch.
My IS has a clock. I've never set it.

I bought a $20 Walmart waterproof sport watch (analog) and used the handlebar clamp for a wrist. Fool proof.

For under $10 most Autozone, Ace had these I mounted under the Clarion with a spot of Velcro. Shielded from rain and sun. My jacket sleeves cover the wrist watch this I can glance at anytime. .jpg) |

I have clocks by Marlin ($89 free shipping) ..... the two styles on the top row below. There's a push button night light, stays on for a few seconds. Thinking of getting a large dial.  |

Wondering if you got the matching thermometer from the same vendor? Looking at the site I can't find one. I did find a set with black faces on a different sellers site but prefer the one you bought. |

My current bike came with a Formotion clock. Previously I used your method. |

I have had a Formotion Clock, and Thermometer on my bike since the beginning. They have held up great. The clock arms, and thermometer needle sit in a oil so they don't vibrate or wiggle while riding. I had an issue with the Thermometer, and Formotion replaced it. I can attest to their customer service being top notch. https://www.formotionproducts.com/shop/ |
