The Nippon Denso rev counter on my MHR is very slow to move, does anyone know of anyone in the UK that repairs these instruments or any thoughts on the problem.
I know the bike has stood for nearly two years so was hoping it might sort itself out with some use.

pull the cable off the back, lift the wheel and give it a spin [the wheel]. Is the cable moving? Try to hold it tight and spin again...... Does it slip or is it still moving...........
This will tell you if it is a problem with the internal cable just getting worn [rounded off at the ends] or if it is the gauge..

It would be better if you can just post the details here anyway, Andy. That way, if anyone needs to know in the future, they can find it using the search function of the forum.andygbsmith wrote:I have found a guy in the UK that restores ND clocks.
If anyone needs his info drop me a PM.

Just a thought ...

I had an issue with the tacho on my darmah either not working or not indicating true revs. Talked to Phil at R&R and he said something along the lines of a worn bit in the tacho drive rather than the clock. Some times need to solder a bit onto the drive tang as it is worn down. Probably better to email him for an accurate picture of what he described.
I put a new cable in mine and seems to be working fine.
