    Interesting, though if you can't see it at a glance what's the point of having a tach at all?
    90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

        Its in my range of view...and the only time i really use my tach is when i tach the bike out to shift and it has a shift light thats bright enough to blind you.

                              I like tha way Kats look... why chang em?

                              That thing looked cool when you when you first got it I can't figure out why you guys change them up especially when some of them just look ratty. I'm new to motorcycles, is there any other reason than just got borred with the norm?
