I've got an 87 bmw k bike i'm building. I don't want to use original gauges, nor have any to use, instead i want a single tacho mounted on my triple tree, a la a classic cafe.
The stock tachometer system gets it's read from a signal coming from the alternator, and juice from (of course) a 12v electrical circuit.
What can i use to replace the stock tach?
Is it OK to use the tach from a smaller engine, ie, 2 cylinders? If not, can anyone recommend a similar four cylinder bike with an alternator-fed tach?
Thanks!
