First new post in the new folder for me LOL
Anyhow, looking for some input. 93 750 beautiful day went out to spank my Kat. Rode it hard as usual. Rode about 35 - 40 miles one way mostly all highway and the bike was/is running great. Pulled strong at 110 plus in 5Th near red. On the way back from my cousins I took it a bit more relaxed. Was enjoying the ride. Happened to notice my tach at one point prior to a light on the highway looked a bit off. payed attention to it again on the way to the next light... then played with it all the rest of the freeway ride home.
Anyhow, when it hits about 7K to 8K during acceleration, it starts stuttering or going in reverse... drifting back from 8 to wards 7. The bikes running strong so I know the tachs actually misreading... I dropped from 5Th to 4Th on purpose on the highway to make the rpms jump. Seemed to be OK higher up. So i popped back to 5Th got on it to redline and popped 6Th to about 130 (clear roadway), no issues Motors pulling totally fine, just the tach seems to be having a turrets issue between 7-9K and just a minor flux near 10. But on thinking, I am wondering if my redlines actually being affected in some way. Bike is running great.
Sans a short, or a dirty connection, both of which I am going hunting for tomorrow. What could be a cause? CDI? Tachs not totally important to me since I generally go by the sound of the motor and feel in the seat as for when to shift, but it would be nice if there was a reference on the tach to synch to the speedo occasionally
