Specialist in clocks switch & guage refurb/rebuild

Mr Polish
I am restoring a CB 750 K2 (1973) and in doing so have come across a resource other members  doing a refurb/rebuild might be interested to know about.

I can recommend
www.guagerepairs.com
Peter Bond undertakes full repair and restoration to  classic Japanese (and German) Speedometers, Revcounters and switch units. He also has a range of reconditioned items available. I was able to source both a  reconditioned tach and speedo for my K2 .
Based in London he is both knowledgeable and friendly and his work is of an excellent quality

Thanks for the info.  My clock is nine over at 55 MPH.  I found a company that claimed they fixed almost every clock on the planet...  Until I asked about the cost of fixing my 1979 model:  "Sorry, no parts available."

The price is steep, however, so it is not something I consider a burning need.  Still, it is nice to know that I can have it fixed, if I choose to part with the cash (current exchange rates puts it around $242, without S/H).  I am sure some folks will find this worth their while, and their cash.  Thanks for sharing!  Cheers!

I have heard there is a place here in Kansas City that rebuilds them. I will have to do some research, and find it for you.
