if it doesnt have a setting for 2 cylinder motor, odds are it isnt gonna read right.  that being said, when I get home from work today, I will look at mine and see where I have mine hooked up to, provided you post a picture of ur tach mounted on the bike

That is wrong in so many ways...you're missing the shift light! 

[jeremy_nash]

ok, didnt realize you had an f, that simplified your wiring alot!  lol what happened to your fairing?  and I'm gonna guess australia, but where are you from?

All you need now is a fart can on the back.  

I was gonna ask something. But on second thought, I'll just sit back and enjoy the show...

You set it to tell you to shift when you hit 3k? That means you'll shift up and the rpm will be even less, right? You'll be always lugging the engine - not good. Am I missing something?

Curious... WHO dropped your bike? Details of the incident.

nono lol, the tacho is weaker then the ACCURATE rpm, okay hmm doesnt read accurate, so if im reving 5k it be 3k on the tach, so i set it to 3k so my sister will noe when to shift lol, no lugging the engine at all ,       i parked on the road in front of a restaurant i was eating at , some guy came in and said who has a helmet here , i was like me, he goes ur bikes on the floor someone mustve dropped it , the guard at the store next to us told me he saw some guy STAGGERING wit my bike    so i hav no idea.... so my break leaver bent in so badly, and my handle bar jst slided to the left lol    :dunno_black:it was on like a slight hill as well, he must accidently pushed it over    but gives me a reason to buy better clutch n break levers LOL so my sis cant tell me off >=D

Always park the bike In Gear. This way, it cannot accidentally roll forward, side stand up and fall.
