Replacing the Clock Bulb is cheap and easy if you don't follow the service manual. First take off the right (throttle side) mirror cover. Rotate the mirror out of the way. See the white box? That's the back of the clock. See the wire harness going into it at a socket? Reach up through the wheel well looking through the mirror opening. Using the wires, rotate the socket to break it loose then pull it out. Pull the bulb, replace and re-install.

I had a hard time getting my hand up in there, so I used a long flat bladed screw driver to turn the socket (it's the white rubber boot with two wires coming out of it) to loosen it, then used long nose pliers to pull on the wires to get it out. I went through the hole in the fairing that is behind the mirror to get to it. Putting the bulb in was reverse of taking it out. Pushed it in a bit with the pliers, then finished with the screw driver. There are also power leads that go to the clock. They are the lower set of wires. Don't pull these out!
