(4 stars) reviewed on 04/20/09 by mark (midstar7) from springfield, OR, United States, for a '07 midnight 650 V-Star Custom wrote: works good, looks good. have to remove seat and gas tank to install. connect wires from tach to rear coil. had to trim the supplied wire connector to fit on negative side of coil terminal. The face fogged up a little. They say if you tighten the front of the bracket all the way and leave a slight gap at the rear it will cure the fogging problem. I'll do that and find out. Overall i like the tach, a bit pricey but seems to be good quality. Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

(4 stars) reviewed on 02/26/05 by Dick (RevDick) from Orange, CT, United States, for a 2002 650 V-Star Custom wrote: High quality accessory, easy to install although did require the removal of the gas tank to get at one of the ignition coils. Good instructions. Tach is lit for night riding and is flicker free with a steady needle. I though the bike's idle RPM's were too low and this confirmed it. Wiring harness was too short by about 12 inches even when mounting the tach in the middle of the handlebar. There is no reason for harness to be that short as it is a lot easier to cut it back if too long than it is to add wires. I would downgrade the product because of the short wire harness.

I've done some aftermarket engine upgrades so the tach really helps me keep track of my timing, and rev limitation. Very nice quality. Super easy install.

(3 stars) reviewed on 04/22/03 by Bryan Charz (charzman) from Eglin AFB, FL, United States, for a 650 V-Star Custom wrote: Great lookin and easy to install but a bit disappointed on the operation of the unit. Tach works great and reads steadly up to about 4000 rpm, after that it gets jumpy. Holding the engine at speed when standing still will even make it "bounce" around quite a bit. During fast acceleration from a stand still the tach is about useless for an idea where your at in relation to the rev limiter. Great looking but don't depend on it for an accurate reading.
