Installing tachometer

2004+ Harley used a Delphi style ignition... The data bus is j1850 NOT tach friendly! The best way to hook up a tach with the LEAST amount of problems... (I have tried) is to buy a tc88a ignition module which has a ISOLATED regular tach output!

A lot o tach pick up interference from the data bus or other gremlins! They usually don't read correctly on the 2004+ bikes I have tried 3 different tach with mixed results.

Best option I found was the tc88a with a dedicated output. Also you can adjust the vss for you bike or tire or gear changes! And also I can supply u with a custom ignition map.
 
Early model years are dual fire but a 2006 is single....take a look.
I don't know what year it flipped.

1998:

Revised ignition system (single fire)
1200S gets dual-plug heads (along with hotter cams)
