Default Pretty Cool

I had the dealer install the se air cleaner, and the shop manager took my old 96 cubic inch Rocker cover and installed a clock in it. It looks great and a good conversation piece. Good way of putting a normally non functioning piece of my Harley to good use. My dealer has some good folks working there. They take pretty good care of me.

That's very clever, I think I now have a good use for my old football cover.

flyburch,
Unless I'm badly mistaken all they did was put a battery powered clock mechanism in through the center hole. You can get the clock works at any decent sized hobby store like an AC Moore.
