I brought my rev counter from a place called Catalyst Cycles. You gould Google them and check their instrument section.

Does anyone have any experience with either of these tachometers (RYCA's website says they are out of stock on the Mini)? I know the bike itself doesn't need one, but it would be a good visual learning aid for my wife, who just got her bike and license, and has never driven a manual before (car or bike). Thanks!

That first one looks exactly the same as the Ryca mini tach (same colored wires too) - the only difference is the (Chinese/English?) text at the bottom of the dial. The Ryca doesn't have that. That might tell you something. However, it's not a very complicated piece of equipment. Personally, I'd take a punt on it.

I also found it to be a very useful learning tool. It gave me a lot more confidence to rev the bike properly to get the most out of it. It also helped me learn to read the bike by sound. I can now tell what gear I'm in by using the sound of the bike at various speeds.

I wrote a tutorial on installing the Ryca mini tach. I have a feeling it would work for that one too.

Or, you might be interested in something on this page. This is a company here in Australia that I have bought from often and found them to be excellent. You will pay for shipping but there are a couple of tachs in there for $34 (AUD)

The international exchange rate will be in your favour too!

Aaaand, if you look through the website you'll probably find a couple of things you didn't know you needed, and you could bundle them.
