Heffy Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I am thinking about getting a Tach (rev counter for the Brits) these look very nice - if a little expensive: http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/detail.cfm?Category_ID=67&manufacturer_ID=4&product_ID=40404&sblid_name=Cobra_Cruiser_Tachometer___V_Star__________for_Yamaha_V_Star_1300&model_id=140 But there's no info on how many RPM these 950s will pull? (or the torque or BHP figures) All these add-on tachs seem to go to 8,000. Any clues? - I hunted the Yamaha website - nothing. Luv the bike BTW...

Moderator Goff Posted September 8, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 8, 2009 Maximum torque is pulled at around 3000 RPM if that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximum power: 39.4 kW (54 PS) @ 6,000 rpm Maximum torque: 76.8 Nm (7,84 kg-m) @ 3,000 rpm So a Tach that goes to 8K wuld be fine Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
