Dial Type Tach

[KXcam22]

I have been wanting to adapt a small dial type tach to my SMS630. I don't like the tiny bar graph or the digital display. Has anyone done this. I though it would be easy to find one but I have looked around and not come up with anything. It can even be a LCD dial type. Cam.

how high do u need it to rev ? there is quite a selection of automotive ones that are dial and 50/60 mm gauge cup . some of theme are optomistic and read to 10k . or decent ones actually go higher
for example . but buy one that costs more than 16 dollars haha

I have used Auto Meter since '82. Back then they also made a very cool billet mount with for a solo tach to bold on the triple clamp. Looks like they have a few sizes but this one goes to 10k, the smaller only 8k. 3 styles...

Trailtech has a little digital tach, that doubles as an hour meter.

It's about $30.

Most automotive tachs only have settings for 4,6,8 cylinders. That one might work as its for a twin but the website says that harleys only put out one pulse per rev, which I am assuming the 630 puts out Cam.

I'm going to use an Ecliptech Shift-I. Really its more of a shift light, but you can use it as a tacho as well, just depends on what upper/lower limits you set:

That's kind of what I was looking for but with a larger range. Cam.

 

[SimpleOne]

By larger range do you mean better resolution? (i.e. more lights?)

 

[KXcam22]

Yes. I think 8000 rpm max is about right. Cam.

Okay, fair that is understandable. The Shift-I can deal with really high rpm's, but they don't do a variant with any more lights unfortunately.
