Default Quad Tachometer?

Anyone making a "Quad Specific" tach for our bikes yet? Something small yet easy to see and, lighted would be perfect! I think I would be Awesome and, so benefitial to know what Rpm Range your in at all times for dragging and, just messing around!!

I know about the tach for the DS but it is big, ugly (yellow and, orange face would go good on my Blue Raptor) and, is a Rip-off at Ron Woods Racing for $250+ or, whatever it is. I've also seen the Yamaha Digital tach but it is not lighted, not easy to see, not sure where you'd mount it and, has a delay - what good is that?

How about a Tach w/ a Mini Temp Gauge and, Oil Pressure gauge piggy backed right on? Pleeeeeeeeeez AutoMeter? LOL

High LIfter has one, not sure if it's lighted. It looks nice though

I was gonna buy a Koso or Coso(cant remember) tach but it wont fit in my handlebars cuz Ive already got my gps mount and the power adapter for it. Some guys have used that tach on quads and some can get it to work, others cant...but for $50 its not a big loss if it wont work on yours. This is their website Koso Hope this helps!

I just put a sunpro on my quad, it hooks right up to the dyna ignition. Then again the dyna ignition is 300+$ LOL. Then I had 90$ in the tach off e-bay.

The Digitron unit can have two displays: 1. EGT 2. Tach
You need to buy the tach accessory but, that is a great tool. If you know your RPM you can adjust your gearing. If you know your EGT you can adjust your jetting.

Downside is It doesn't look the best on a dash.
