I am looking at adding a tach to my 98 Road King but it said that I need to know if mine is single fire or dual fire??? I just bought my first Harley and this is greek to me. Would it be single or dual?

Ok thanks, all the talk about dual fire and single fire had me confused. I saw where some were dual and some were single and then someone said all fuel injected were single and then someone said some of them were dual. Makes my head hurt!!

I understand your concerns....best thing for you to do is believe the one that sounds most convincing to you, if he lied then never believe that one again......lol...lol...lol...you see it's a process of elimination. No really I don't know what to tell you....all these forums are pretty muck alike in that manner.

Good Luck
