What tach? I never said I had one.
Actually I do, but I took it out. I recently put it back on but it is mounted off to the side.

I ran a 1/8" air brake line up to my dash. the little tiny clear line that comes with some gauges dont look like it would take much to spring a leak in one of those. I also have a gauge that has a switch built in to it. atatched the factory wire from the original presure sensor to it. if my pressure drops, and I am not looking at the gauge, the light will still come on. its called a murphy switch gauge. scroll down to the bottom of this page. it explains how it works. these are adjustable. the one I have is not. it just comes on if pressure goes away. they are 2" also.
who remembers the web site or name of that cool inline billet water temp gauge with the gauge mounted right in the peice? I want to get a couple of them. was it ESR or ESM? they are like 80 bucks.

The liquid filled gauges are 2-5/8 inches.
I also replaced the plastic tubing with a braided steel line.
ESR makes the inline temp gauge. Had one, gave it to Marbelous. Hard to read when you're on the bike.
There is another Co. that makes them also. They are really cheap, don't buy it.

If you have an oil field supply store in your area you can buy 1/8" stainless steel tubing to run the line with. You can shape it buy hand and it won't rub through or get a hole melted in it. I ran the tubing through a rubber vacume hose where it rub against metal and about the only way to damage it now is for something to get up in the engine compartment and rip it loose. The braided hose would look better but the tubing might be a little cheaper. You can get the stainless fittens also and they polish out really nice, the only thing on my DS that is shinny any more. If price isn't that important I would go with the braided ss hose just for looks.
