Default Add a tachometer

I own a 2017 Slim and want to add a tach. I want to keep the stock set up but would like a larger tach. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Pics would also be helpful. Thanks

I have one of these and like it: https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...PH/p/74774-11D

It should fit your bike.

Combo tach, yes. Nice to glance down see what the motor's runnin, if you're in the right gear.
I have been doing more than I should have long term in that gear, guilty...lulz

I really think that combo speedo/tach should come standard. I love it! More info without the clutter.

I wished I'd spent another $100 and bought it instead of my bar mount Barron
(which is a nice piece of jewelry, but not worth $170 for a cheap electronics they stuck in the housing)

..L.T.A.
