I' NEWPRODUCTSi MOTORCYCLE METER The Avocet Cyclometer 45 from CBO Pr.oducts works on the same principle as a bicycle meter (using magnets), but unlike bicycle meters - is capable of registering speeds up to 999.9 miles per hour. Two magnetic rings are supplied for motorcycle applications, either of which may be used by gluing it to the front wheel. The computer itself can by mounted wherever it is most easily seen, and includes an average-speed function, a maximum-speed function, a trip odometer and an overall odometer, all of which read in either kilometers or miles. Speed is displayed to hundredths of a second. The Cyclometer is made in the USA and sells for $59.95. For more information, contact CBO Products, Dept. CN, 702 Alamance Street, Box 9005, Gibsonville, NC 27249, 910/4495254. GUARD YOUR FRAME The DeVol ·Racing alloy frame guards are designed to provide a smooth transition between the guard and the frame to prevent boots from hanging up on various parts around the footpeg area. The frame guards bolt on using pre-existing holes and are promised to keep your ankles from slamming against protrudin'g bolts and brackets as well as to provide traction to the side of the boot if used in conjunction with DeVol's adhesive-backed Antislip Material. The Antislip MilJerial sells for $6.99, and the frame guards themselves carry a suggested retail price of $52.99. For more information, contact DeVol Racing, Dept. CN, 202 37th Street NE #E, Auburn, WA 98002, 206/735-2463. OLD-STYLE CLUTCH MEETS NEW-SCHOOL CONVERSION Primo Products presents their new diaphragm-spring Pro-clutch clutchconversion kit, engineered to convert any old-style, coil-spring clutch pack to modern diaphragm-spring function.

Each kit includes clutch hub, clutch discs (friction and steel), diaphragm spring, spring retainer, pressure plate, and four shoulder bolts. Two kits are available: a PCI000 for pre-Evolution belt drives, and a PCI000C for all Harley models back to 1936. Suggested retail price is $550. For more information, contact Rivera Engineering, Dept. CN, 12532 Lambert Road, Whittier, CA 90606, 310/907-2600. . PRO-TECH YOUR NECK The PowerSports Safety Corporation introduces the Neck Pro-Tech, designed to protect the necks of all helmet-bearing sports competitors and reduce the risk of neck injuries as well as broken collarbones. The impact-absorbing collar "hugs" the rider's neck, but is said to allow mobility while still limiting the extreme ranges of motion that can cause damage. The collar is part of a small shoulder pad that attaches to a rider's pants with suspenders, and promises to provide additional head support and vision stability if a rider rests his or her helmet lip 9n the Pro-Tech. The unit is available for a suggested retail price of $49.95. For more information, contact PowerSports Safety Corporation, Dept. CN, 3681 Karen Pkwy.
