Anyone know where I can buy a Rev counter for a motorbike where it picks up the pulses/revs from the plug?

Answer 1

Never heard of a tach that reads at the plug? at the coil yes.

Answer 2

Don't know why you'd want to do this as most bikes pick it up from the coils or crank. But it can be done by building a coil of wire around the plug lead that induces a voltage and sends it to the Tacho (rev counter). Sounds like a job for a specialist really and not an easy or cheap job at that.

Answer 3

You need an electronic rev counter that picks up the signal from the wire that goes to the points/contact breaker or the electronic ignition set up , not the plug.
