I've done the mod, it's not easy but if you take the time tis well within the capacity of a home mechanic.

When you say headlight cluster,are you including clocks in that? they're by far the most expensive piece of the puzzle

Yes you can use 690 clocks, 10k max rpm is enough. If you have 05 - 06 superduke then the rev limiter is anyway activated lower then 10k rpm. All the wiring is the same, 690 does not have outside temperature sensor.
