for some strange reason, I couldn't get a signal from the #3 on the ECM on my '06 WG.&nbsp\\; Finally got it from the #3 off of the speedo and it works great.

gman - Tell me a little about the fork brace you show. I like the look and am wondering if you noticed any handling differences with it on. Thanks

I just put a tach on my 08 FXDC . Power was obtained from the Orange and White at the speedo you can get the ground at the same plug on the black and grey. My other wire ( pulse )went to the blue and red down at the Ignition coil plug .
