Ironheads and old style distributor

If your wondering if the microTach will work on your older distributor style motorcycle. The answer is YES. But you need to request a special tachAdapter with more filtering than the standard tach adapter that ships.

Order the standard adapter direct from www.speedwayinstruments.com then send me an email at info@speedwayinstruments.com and request a distributor version of the Speedway Instruments tachAdapter.

Updated FAQ

So I seem to be doing a really poor job of keeping this blog updated regularly. I will try todo better. A couple things to update everyone about.

1. I updated the FAQ to include info about the microSpeed speedometer. Especially of interest is about the touchscreen interface.

2. Last month seemed like a really bad month for folks with standard version microTach and tachAdapters. I talked to a few guys having trouble with the tach jumping around (ie. from 10 - 25 at idle). So I modified the tachAdapters to do more filtering and sent them out new ones. That seemed todo the trick. So if anyone else has an issue with their microTach jumping around please let me know and I will send out a new tachAdapter.

3. All new shipments of tachAdapters will have increased filtering.

Thanks everyone for their feedback and support

New Speedway Instruments microSpeed Speedometer and Bike

In order to help promote our New microSpeed Speedometer I decided to re-make my 1200XL into a cool barhopper/bobber style bike.

Gone are the stock bars and instruments, seat, pipes, air cleaner, fender and paint.
Replace with 16" Burly narrow Apes, Mustand Tripper Solo, Vance & Hines Short shots, Kuryakyn Air Cleaner, and custom Speedway Instruments paint.

Premiering on the bike is the NEW ultra small Speedway Instruments microSpeed Speedometer. What you see is the entire unit, no seperate control box. It is plug and play into any Harley Davidson motorcycle with electronic speed sensor or directly into the late-model 2004 and later Harley Davidson with the J1850 digital bus. Additionally it will work on any metric bike as well if it has an electronic speed sensor.

The microSpeed Speedometer will be available in Febuary from Speedway Instruments or the 2009 Kuryakyn catalog and Kuryakyn Dealers.

Kuryakyn now carrying Speedway Instruments!
