I think I spoke too soon Karl. The tach is now pretty much useless on the 1150. I will be going to the electronics supply store tomorrow to buy the capacitors you recommended. :-)

Earl,

Glad to here it was an easy fix to your tacho.

BTW:

My tacho is still working after the capacitor change

Earl I will be interested to know where you find your parts...you know just in case I go through this. I have noticed one of my tachs is a little lazy...probably same thing as yours.

Me too but I think my tach notices Im a little lazy also

Well Skip, my tach isnt lazy. According to the display things must be really humming because the engine idles at about 9500 rpm. :-) :-)

I spent all that money to get mine to make big power at 9500 and your bike begins there? I knew you got a good deal but thats crazy!

I found the 4.7 capacitor at Radio Shack. Its a standard stocked item.
The 33 farad however was not even in the catalog. I went to a local mom and pop electronics repair shop (they work primarily on computers) and the guy had a drawer full of them. Apparently, it is commonly used in computers. The capacitors cost me $1 each.
