They used to have mechanical tachs on the early CB125S models back in the mid 70's.
I've got an 81' model(it never had a factory tach.) that I'm going to install an 83' XL200R engine into and I'd like to know if anyone makes an electronic tach. w/ an analog needle readout? anyone ever seen one ?

I've looked online but just seeing ones for Harleys or automotive that only read up to around 8K,I'd like to have a small,round one that reads up to 12K and runs off the CDi,etc.?
 
Check out TrailTech, specifically their Vapor model. They have a wire that wraps around the spark plug wire and reads the pulses off that. Also you get the benefit of a temperature and speedo sensor. Watch Amazon for open box ones. I've picked up 2 so far and paid about $40 each.

I'll keep an eye open for that,thanks. Do you know if it has a needle rather than digital readout ?
