Tach addition source
Hey there all, new to the forum and a new Harley owner here, just bought an 07 FXD Pewter Pearl.
Anyway what I am curious about is how you all have added a tach to your Dyna's. I have searched though some catalogs and haven't found much and I am curious where to purchase and is the installation easy. I am assuming that it will get tach info from the engine computer, thanks in advance.

I bought my FDX because I wanted to "build" my own look and, believe it or not, just love the clean tank look. But, I never liked the way the speedo looked, so I bought a Digital Dakota and all my problems were solved. Not only does it have a great look but I now have a tach and the read out options are amazing. I know it's a lot of $ just to add a tach but with the look and additional features it's well worth the money.

HD sells a drop in/plug n play speedo-tach combo for the 4" speedo console...kind of pricey @ $499 but i found one on ebay for $200...took about 15 minutes to install the first time...probably take 5 minutes from now on...:>)

Thanks for the info guys. I looked at the drop in style speedo and tach but my FXD doesnt have that style. I would really love to put the handle bars, tach and speedo off of a FXDSE screamin eagle 07 model, I love that look, but where in the hell would I find the parts. Thanks again guys.
