Thinking about adding one of these Cobra tachs. Looking for anyone who has one of these, and what you think about it. I'm assuming it can be mounted on either side since the mount just replaces one of the handlebar clamps.
Now I am confused... I've been told the VLX is a dual coil SINGLE fire ignition, that it doesn't fire both coils at the same time. each coil fires two spark plugs but they are on the same cylinderThose can be mounted on either side (horizontal part of bars).
I would think that any electronic Tach made for non-fuel injected bikes would
work with your Bike. If they say it works on a honda motorcycle thats not fuel injected, it should work on your bike.
A lot of sellers use the old photo of the cobra tach (offset mount) when they are actually selling the newer model that mounts straight up and down as opposed to your "offset" tach pic.
Make sure you get the Tachometer model number being sold and compare it
to that same model tachometer on the Cobra website to see what you would
actually be getting. They should both work, they just look different when mounted.
I would look at this Tachometer (below), I would probably have it myself if it worked with fuel injected bikes ignition system (EFI =single fire).
Your VLX has a Dual fire ignition (common on non EFI bikes)
I recommend you get this one (below), i think you will be happy with it.

So then this means ?????? two coils fire at the same time...one on each head????dual coil single fire ignition systems.
