I just installed a HD mini tach on my Deuce, it was pretty easy with the exception of installing the signal wire for the tach into pin #3 on the speedo connector.
once I found out where pin #3 was, it easy as pie!
If I had the pin when I started the install, it probably would have only taken me about 30Min to do the whole thing.
