Tom's R850R: Clock and Tachometer

(no previous image) | Back | Next image

BMW offers a nice clock and tachometer for the R bikes. One of the reasons I bought my bike was the accessories.

The clock is analog. It is mounted in a vibration-damping mount, and is lit. It is easy to read at night. Time is set via a small knob on the back. Anyone who walks up to your bike can change the time. In contrast, my Honda VFR had the clock integrated into the dash, and the time would not change unless the ignition switch was on.

Mind you, I'm not complaining about the BMW clock, just making an observation.

The quality of the accessories is high. The mounting angle is good, and I've rarely had trouble reading the clock or tachometer in any angle light. The faces are surrounded by a nice black bezel.
