luminous motorcycle jacket

An accurate, durable, easy-to-read liquid-filled compass that simply clips onto any 7⁄8" or 1" handlebar. Luminous 1" floating dial on jeweled pivot provides smooth rotation. Clip is easy to remove for accurate readings away from steel motorcycle parts.Also as durable as the compass is an easy to read, liquid filled -20°F to +160°F thermometer. It too clips onto any 7⁄8" or 1" handlebar. One inch diameter dial.The clock clip is specially made for us and features a sweep-second quartz movement that is not really intended for outdoor use but the prototype survived two seasons on Ed’s 500 single so we think it’s OK.

Instead, directly for a resolution. Guess I should've read the reviews. Watching this compass while riding is like watching a record set at 78 RPM - spin spin spin. And when it stops spinning (which is when you stop moving) it generally shows north in any direction but north. I was reminded how long it's been since I used a compass, after I installed this thing on my handlebars, only to be reminded in short order that compasses don't work around metal or magnetism! So, unfortunately, this compass doesn't work for me. In retrospect, it was evidently obvious to the designer that this would not work from the drawing board.It shows exactly opposite of all directions. East is West, etc. Waste of money on this item and returning it will cost too much. You get what you pay for. When mounted to the handlebars (as designed), it spins like a top most of the time. Remains mounted simply for its entertainment value. I think this compass works awesome! I have a Harley Road Glide, as in a frame mounted fairing.

Generally it works very well just to give a general direction. It is not uber accurate, but it will tell you the differencebetween North and South. Even with my speakers it does well, and if I am in doubt I wait until I stop and then turn the handlebars away from the speaker to make sure.

I put the compass on my motorcycle's handlebars and I zoomed off. About a mile into my journey I noticed that I was always traveling NORTH. I thought this was strange since the sunset was blinding me from the horizon.

Compass has to be removed from the handlebars to be accurate but I do this all the time while riding to get my bearings. Definitely not a GPS but lots better than nothing. Only works correctly when balanced or leveled perfectly. I would expect a motorcycle application to be a bit more forgiving. I have bought two of these as I thought them a clever design and assumed they would be invaluable to orient myself while traveling. They fit the handlebars of my Suzuki Bandit and looked great. Unfortunately, neither worked at all. I wasn't expecting much for the price but I had high hopes. The first lost its liquid after a year. The second never could find north -- on or off the bike. I am now back to using my Boy Scout hand held compass. Currency conversion rates are close estimates only.

The Clock Clip (#4230) is by far the most useful. It's proven to be durable, easy to read and works great on bicycles, too. The Compass Clip (#2203) has problems finding north as soon as it's clipped to any handlebar, but it also snaps off in half a second and because it's nicely liquid filled it quickly points true as soon as it's a few feet away from all the metal. This remains a nice lightweight and out-of-the-way method of having a little analog backup in case the GPS fails in some remote place, or if your and your smartphone are way off the grid somewhere. The Temperature Clip (#2212) is the most problematic. It's also liquid filled, but the numbers are so small that it's very hard to read, almost impossible...and it's not adjustable so if it's internal bimetallic spring pointer is off by a few degrees you need to figure out by how much and then perpetually add or subtract this number to know the actual temp.
