I scored good on ebay. A 2 5/8 tach, complete kit off an 06 FXD 35 for a hundred bucks. Had to get a different mounting bracket and adjust it with a Harley hammer to get enough clearance from my windshield. Finally got it all installed and it fits good,just gotta do some research on how to hook it up. Too pretty a day to work on it anymore today.

Good Luck

Tom

why do you need a tach for?

 

Nice job Tom, looks good. I really like the functional pieces.

Nice Job I like the way it looks and it should be helpful in some cases.

 

Guess I didn't really need one,just wanted one. Grew up in the sixties and still love rowing thru the gears,flat out,and trying to get all the time and speed I can in the quarter. Like to experiment to see at precisely what rpm to shift to put meback into the optimum torque range. It's just a fun thing.

Good Luck

Your going to have to take apart big connector on ECM and get a pin to go into the #3 hole, Stock wire is not there.

 

Looking at the wiring diagrams,it looks like you should be able to get a tach signal off the LT. GRN/VIOLET wire from the speedo but that didn't work.Then I ran a wire with pin into the # 3 hole in the ecm connector. Still no response guess I got a bad tach. Don't know what else to check.

Good Luck
