Tacho needle
 

Is the TACHO needle supposed to zip up to 7K rpm when you switch on? mines a K6 pointy and doesnt do this. Cant say Ive noticed if it ever did but have bought some blue leds to fit to the clocks and the instructions with them say the needle is supposed to go to 7K rpm then drop to zero. Im just wondering if Ive buggered something when I fitted my alarm, havent attemted the led fit yet.

Any ideas?

Cheers

My pointy doesn't have a speedo needle, it has a digital speedo. I think you mean the tacho needle.

Yep, tacho you are so right!

My K6 doesnt do the "mystic needle" dance either.

Blue LED's on the clocks - how wonderfully Chav.

Now if they were Red, that would be something completely different :)

K6 pointy here, needle doesn't move when the ignition comes to life, didnt start the engine but don't think it does it then either

the bandit does this well the k5 does but the sv aint surposed to.

LOL - but some red on your bike would make it go faster - blue just slows you down :)

it goes up to approx 7k on the tach for a few second on the pointies when the batteries has been disconnected for a little bit 30 second 1 min i am not sure exactly how long but if you unhook the battery for a little it will do it one time
