got an unoriginal tacho on an xs1100RH - bought from america by the PO and i have no idea what it's off. it works fine when i rev the bike in neutral, but then is very shaky when im actually riding. gets to about 4-5k then just oscilates while the bike revs up to god knows what. the bikes running well in general. quite confused.

The tach gets it's signal from the alternator. The connector behind the fuse panel (3 white wires) can be corroded and not give the tach a clean signal. Clean 'em up and see if it improves. This cleaning will also improve the alternator's output voltage.2H7 (79)
