TACHOMETER QUESTION

I have two 1979 CBX tachometers, one says "x1000 rpm" at the bottom and the other says "x 1000 min-1" I assume North American bikes had x1000rpm graduation but where were the x1000min-1 tachs used? See my picture.

Hi,

The "min-1" tachos were original fitment in Europe (and maybe elsewhere).

Tachos for the Z went up to 11K, later models (just prolink?) were 10K.

There is a variety of tachs out there that looks the same and they were used on different bikes. The CB900Fs and 81 and 82 CB1100Rs had the same tach.
