Title: Tachometer Compatibility – 96 California 1100i and 97 EV
Post by: ChrisG on August 22, 2022, 10:30:59 AM: I have a 96 Cali 1100i. The tach is not working (just quit). My part, GU2976250, is listed for 94-97 California 1100i.

Part #GU03767200 is listed for the California EV from 97-2000I. I found one available. It is a different face color. Is this tach compatible with my 1100i?

Alternatively, any recommendations for tach repair?

So - repair suggestions?

Foam or rubber weather stripping to take up the gap in the housing or trade it with someone off of the forum list.

The movement is very fragile and breaks easily. Speedos are different and may be worth repairing. Check out aftermarket ones. I made a new mounting plate for my EV to fit a aftermarket tach.

Post by: bigbikerrick on August 22, 2022, 01:54:59 PM: Like Tris suggested, Soeedhut is the way to go.
I put a speedhut tach in my EV, and it works flawlessly. Great company to deal with. I also installed one in a Cal II I had.
