I have a blue digital tach in my truck, so freaking annoying.. Blue is one of those colors that attracts your eyes, looks good but wouldn't want that on the bike would get annoying really fast, y I love the red back light, not eye catching at all

Does anyone know if this is a plug in type of mod, or do we have to solder stuff?

 

[Landin]

Think you have to take it apart...

It would be nice maby to put a resistor on the wire so that the light wont be that bright?

Looks like I won't be messing with that.

Nice! See that you got a gear-indicator in the dash as well =)

Ahh NP! Sweet, think you gonna get it faster than me, can you post some pics on the whole thing when you get it?

Hey Blanchy, how did you wire that tach plate in? I saw it on a Japanese site and it's like 90 USD, and wouldn't mind getting one cause it looks awesome.

I wired mine to my Park lights but also put a cheap $8 Photo sensitive switch in so it only illuminates at night. Aust mod uses the pod lights for white park lights, just little white lights that are on when running or can be activated when parked. For some pics, go to this link on the FZ1 site (what about RPM/Redline is it the same?)

Hey Landin noticed your location, Might need some help with translation. Are you up for that? Sent an email asking for English instructions but might need help when it gets here.

I thought all the girls in Sweden had blue eyes?

I'm interested in changing the display to white LEDS, the red for me is hard to read.

Blanchy, if you run into problems you can always PM me. I'm an electronics tech by trade and this would be childs play for me. Might do a How to when I do mine so every one can do it.

No, thats because you are Swedish and thats all you have there
