Electronic Tach
« on: October 04, 2014, 07:10:48 AM »
The search button continues to play funny games when I attempt to look up information. Anyways I am looking to do an electronic tach inside of the OEM tach I have for my 550. I would run stock but the 650 cam doesn't allow an accurate reading and I do not want to run a 650 tach.

Any suggestions out there for using an electronic tach on my 550?

I put speedhut guages on my bike, they have been fantastic.  There is a link in my signature to how I did it.  ;D
