Tacho install
Recently fitted a tacho to my 07 Streetbob and went to connect up to pin 3 on the ECU plug like others have done only to realise that since I have a Fuelpak the ECU plug is a Fuelpak plug and all the connectors are used.
I emailed V&H and asked them about it but they advised not to tap into the pin 3 wire as it could stuff everything up.
My next thought was what about the Data Link wire on the speedo, I looked at the wiring diagram for a Lowrider which must have a tacho and except for battery, ignition and accessory the only other wire coming from the tacho is the Data Link one, could this give me a tacho signal on my bike? Any body out there tinkered with this idea?

Thanks for the help gentlemen, I'm ashamed to say I have a cheap aftermarket tach so I'm hoping that it will still work off the data link wire off the speedo. Thanks for the links JRK, I have the same setup as kpreese except not a Alloy Art mount, my mount is identical but comes from Taiwan as I couldnt get one through Alloy Art. I will give it a try and let others know if it works so if anyone else has a aftermarket they will kknow is this method works.
Cheers.
