MauriceVanTine Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I would like to install a tach. on my Phantom. Can anyone give me any advice I am old school and dont feel right without a Tach. Regards Maurice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 You don't say where you are so any local knowledge will be useless. Any decent motorbike shop will be able to procure and fit a tach. for you. They put them on Waves, so... The only drawback will be the location as most step-through tachs don't come with a handlebar mount. I suggest maybe a tach for a Kawasaki KSR 110? As you are old school you will know to stay away from digital displays? Last resort Faddybike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loserlazer Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 if you are really old school, you do not need a tach then, right? especially on a chopper lookalike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllanB Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Something like this seems cheap and cheerful, easy to install too http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=motorcycle+tachometer&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Will get my sister to bring one with her next year, they are made in China and no doubt available here, I just don't like buying stuff here..

There is always this and if it fits a Shadow it will fit a Phantom. http://www.ebay.com/itm/321016660173?item=321016660173&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&cmd=ViewItem&hash=item4abe1580cd&vxp=mtr Including postage it comes to about USD$103 through PayPal or about 3,080 THB.
