@Mspeedster post with the Hobie Cat Easy Rider, made me remember something..
Years ago I used to own this ratty Easy Rider, now long gone.
It had been badly messed around with by someone, terrible lume job and destructive dial cleaning or intentional removal of branding.
You can just see the outlines where the dial printing used to be when zoomed in. All that was left was the strange logo at 12,any ideas what it was?
I never could pin it down and it really bugged me !

In looking at the various Easy Rider models shown on OnTheDash, nothing comes close.

My wild ass guess is that someone was trying to create a custom dial. Started by removing the existing graphics from the dial but gave up on the project and it was left unfinished.

Yeah, may well have been the case. I never found anything close either.
The logo seemed to be printed not painted which is why I felt it was a leftover from the old printing.

It was a shame, case and tachy ring were very good and it ran great for a pin pallet.
