Are you sure the problem is actualy on the dash, problems in any system on the bike can cause failure of any of the items on the instrment pannel, you dont say what the actual problem is in relation to the dash, if you suspect the earth is a problem, eliminate it by running a new wire direct from the neg side of the battery or the engine to the green wire on the dash, if this works then you will have to do a continuaty test on the original green to earth make sure it is working. If no continuaty is present you may have a broken wire or corroded conection inside 1of the connector blocks

The problem is usually a weak battery. When cranking, it pulls down the system so much that the clock resets. Try puting the batt on a charger and start the bike to see if the clock resets with a steady feed of voltage.

thats about it,,,all you need to do if fit the new one but let the clutch adjuster off first so you can fit the cable to the leaver

try new plugs also maybe a different plug also check air filter is clean

Did you check the power regulator? It can 'collapse' under a load, while it looks perfect when measuring the resistances. Does your rectifier have cooling fins?
