Rev counter (tachometer) for the XT660R

Hi folks!

I'm trying to find aftermarket rev counter (tachometer) for the XT660R but I couldn't. It's a shame that a bike doesn't come with one from the factory !!!

Besides, I'm looking for a engine guard (the one that goes UNDER the engine to prevent damages to the exhaust pipes).

Any tips?

Thanks

Fabio

Not specificaly for the XT,people who have fitted a tacho have done so by adapting units for other applications.These units from SPA can be made to fit the bike,i have also heard of a tacho unit for small boats made by an american company that will also be suitable for motorcycles,but the name escapes me !

What about fitting a revcounter from MT-03?

Maybe possible to combine the xt660 wiring with that?

Can a Tenere Rev Counter be used on a R

Quote:
Rev counter / Larger Tanks - I see plenty of posts regarding these two interesting challenges with various degrees of success. However seeing the Tenere may finally be making it back onto the market here in Australia I wonder whether either these two standard Z items could be fitted to the R.
The quote above was cross-posted from my newbie hello post and in essence it says it all.

I would imagine that the Tenere unit would be quite expensive and would obviously require a custom bracket to install BUT in terms of compatibilty and functionality it could a great solution.

I use one of the digital tachos that the go kart racers use - a small rectangular box with one wire with a clamp that goes onto the plug lead - works really well, small, waterproof and it fits above the speedo with some velcro strip.
About $50 (AUD) if you look around.
