Description & Operation: Tachometer

The tachometer indicates speed of engine in Revolutions Per Minute (RPM). The engine can safely be operated up to a maximum RPM as indicated by the start of the Red bar. Engine operation causing tachometer readings in the Red area can lead to serious engine damage.

Due to its dual-coil design, the tachometer may not return to zero when ignition is turned off. This a normal condition and should not be diagnosed as a problem in tachometer.
