I like this one I think the best. Pretty well hidden and decent price. Curious if it could be switched off cause I am not sure I would like seeing it all the time

I think this one is my best option. Although not as sleek as the other Microtach, it is still small and way cheaper. Plus the Microtach I think would get on my nerves seeing the red display at eye level all the time. I think I am actually buy one. Thanks Husky!

Glad I could help. I found with the tach I had been shifting way early without it. Does that make sense.

Sure does. I have been paying close attention to the MPH in the gears I am in and comparing it to the chart posted above. I too was shifting a tad early but now I know the Andrews 21 cam will be perfect for my riding style.
