A pair of clogs as payment for adapting a scratch-built Peugeot LED tacho embellishment to suit an ST1100.

Hmm.  Let me think about that before I pass it on to Brock or Whizz to build.    Wot thuh
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I built one about 20 years ago. There was a kit that was sold by Dick Smith electronics (and may still be available through Jaycar that used a LED bar display. There was also a LED bar voltmeter and ammeter! I know that they were selling the voltmeter in recent years. I'll see what I can find out!

Edit: the voltmeter is still available through Jaycar, but I haven't found the tacho.

For this or any other sort of electronic gismo, try a look at Alibaba.com.
They are the Chinese version of Ebay , there is some interesting stuff there. But be warned. It might be cheap , but I have found that you will only get what you pay for and their free delivery service can, and will, and does, take several weeks.
Happy shopping and browsing.
Cheers ,

Correct, sounds stupid, but I deleted my account here, because I thought I kept on receiving emails with me iphone. But when I receive and email it only showed the first one I received that day....from Oztoc...and when you think you get more then 20 emails a day from a forum, then you delete yourself.

My misstake. Just so you know
