jef.savage Serious Thumper Offline ridin' n slidin' Posts: 638 Boston, MA Gender:	cheap tach 04/13/10 at 15:42:44 Ordered this Wednesday, it arrived Friday, and I installed it today. I can't speak for it's durability but it looks good and works fine right now. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CHROME-MINI-TACH-TACHOMETER-FOR-SUZUKI-WITH-CL...

I can say that the Raptor petcock makes a huge difference in getting the tank on and off.

But I'm convinced that any tach designed for a dual fire v-twin will work on our bikes. This E-bay seller has been listing these tachs for at least a few months now so they may be there for a much longer.
