Default Small digital tach on a Sportster 72?

I am curious where I could find a small digital tach for a Sportster. I saw one on here a while back and cannot remember or find the manufacturer. The guy had it stuck on his front brake master cylinder tank if I remember correctly.

Does anyone know of the one I am thinking of?

Thanks!

Bike is a 2013 72

I remember seeing one as well...I don't think this is exactly it, but it's pretty close to what I remember...

might as well spend the extra $150 and get the Harley speedo/tach combo to replace your speedo,, it wont fog up and it does more than just a tach,,

it changes colors
it has a gear indicator
optional fuel level gauge
it does some other stuff too,,

plus it would be a plug & play mod with a warranty, no hacking up your wiring or dealing with mounting problems.,,,

would be much worth it to me,,
