Hi guys

The digital clock on my '96 st1100 sometimes halts when the ignition is turned off . When started again it reads the time that it was when stopped .
I have done a search and it said that the battery was at fault but it is a new one .
Any ideas please , it's not major just bloody annoying

Thanks
Graham

Your "cause" young Graham/s is a battery.  This is many due to the lack of distant riding  :rofl :rofl :rofl

My clock has half the digits missing half the lines.

Am I guessing that replacement surgery on the books, or are there words I can say at it that will make it behave itself and tell me the time? Maybe some kind of technical surgery?

It's an age thing.  They can't remember their lines.

Ah! that's it Biggles.  Just waiting for a confirmation from Hop Harrigan and I'll file a report to myself regarding an acquisition form to apply for a requesition of a replacement one.
