    Hello.
    I have read the husky Owners manual multiple times in hope to find out how I can enable the RPM function. In the Owners manual there is this text NOTE: the RPM function is not ON, but next to it, there is a picture of what the RPM function looks like, but no explenation on how to enable it. Also, the reason I think my motorcycle has a tachometer is when the screen lights up, I can see the RPM meter bars in the background. I have tried searching for information in the manuals, forums etc, and still cant find nothing. Any help will be apriciated.
    In the manual, there also is a text, RPM: engine r.p.mA. shown on the vertical LED indicator.
    The manual is for SM125 and WRE125

    My bike had the Trailtech Vapour speedo when I bought it,so I never saw the original tachmeter working ,but there is a 2 wire plug(black and black/white wires) which connects to the original Rpm signal on the bike!Have you seen if its connected?Should get your RPM working !

    Meanwhile in an old post ,I know our tech member ,Robert Jan answered a member on to how to activate RPM in sms 125 and he sent him via Pm,workshop manual 2011 and tells him to check page 205!I had a look at page 205 but still confused,:excuseme: especially as I don't have a speed to test it.( I have the Vapour)
    Kabaumanis,2011 is the narrow speedo but may function the same.
    Think ,the trick is to press the scroll button a number of times ,seems 10 for Rpm and then hold it for 3 secs,but I am not sure.I am not happy with the trailtech vapour and I found an original speedo for 40 euros ,so I may just buy that just to get it working.
    Come on guys with sms 125,help us here,we will appreciate it.:banana:

    The electrical system including cockpit unit of a 2008 model is a different one as a 2011 or later
    I would think it would be possible yet I have no detailed info on the electrical system of the 2008 model

    the RPM signal is taken from the ECU that also controls the ignition there is a sensor in the ignition unit that gives the feedback to the ECU
    logic approach would be that any the RPM signal is based on the feedback signal and not on the pulse generation yet this is internally in the ECU unit.
