tion displays between kilometers

Tachometer

The electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer needle sweeps once across
the r/min range and then returns to zero
r/min in order to test the electrical cir-
cuit.
