12-hour clock: the easy way and the hard way
« on: January 03, 2012, 10:34:32 AM »
A lot of us Americans are more used to 12 hour clocks then the 24 hour digital LCD clock in K bike instrument cluster.

EASY WAY:  If the majority of your riding is done in the afternoon and evening then simply set the clock so that it reads 0:00 at noon.  It will then read like a 12 hour clock in the latter half of the day.

HARD WAY:  Here's a link to an IBMWR write-up on how to alter the clock's circuitry to function as a real 12 hour clock: Telling Time The American Way


Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.

Military time is EASY.

Besides, according to Eisenstein there is NO time or space per say, read why bother knowing.
