Tachometer Installation Preparation

Parts Removal

Refer to the Service manual for specific information in removing the bar clamp components if further instruction is needed.

Remove the two screws holding the headlight assembly and carefully disconnect the 3-pin connector on the back of the headlight reflector to remove the headlight, set it aside for now.

Remove the four chrome handlebar clamp caps and bolts and the two clamps, being careful not to move the handlebars, see side note.

Install Tachometer

Apply 2-stroke oil to the threads of the clamp bolts. Place the tachometer onto the handlebar clamp area and reinstall the four bolts. Make sure the handlebar punch mark aligns with the lower mating surface of the bar clamp at the rear edge. Tighten the front clamp bolts first, and then the rear bolts.

Tighten the bolts to 34 Nm (25 Ft-lbs)

NOTE:

o There will be a small gap at the back of the clamp.

NOTICE

It is recommended that you have an assistant stabilize the handlebars at this point to prevent the handlebars from moving away from the original position and possibly causing damage to the fuel tank

Punch mark aligned with top surface of lower clamp
