Default My Chrome Mod of the day (Pictures)

This is very simple, and I have been wanting this on my bike for awhile.
Now I have a stylish clock and i can keep on schedule. One word of advice I you get one of these clocks, trim the 2 way tape that holds it on the back so as it does not stick to the M/C lid so as when you need to remove the lid to place brake fluid in the resovoir the clock is only glued to the resovoir and not to the lid. Pictures below.

lol...I have been wanting the same thing for my Deluxe as well...So how well does this clock stick on there? I took it off my Christmas wish list cause I thought the "tape" it comes with might loose its stickiness....especially if you have to refill the master cylinder. What are your thoughts? Does it stay on pretty well?

Well it just got installed today, so can't say if it will stay on good or not.
The two way tape seems pretty tough and is sticking good now.If it does come loose I will go to Lowes or Home Depot buy some more 2 way tape and just stick it back on.
Its pretty solid right now, but I thought the same as you, If I get brake fluid on it , its going to come unglued. But I guess only time will tell if the supplied 2 way tape will withstand the test of being mounted on the master cylinder.

They make a thermometer, But I think its designed to mount on the screws that hold the switch housing on. I will wait on that mod.

Got the same clock on my Fatboy. Pricey, but looks and performs well.
