fitted the overhauled dash on the rgs 2day and its still shit-guy that did it reckons bad earth some where-i beg to differ ,ive just got wiring back on and all earths are good-whole unit works great except the tacho waving at me-any clues?
 
What do you mean with weaving - is it showing wrong results or is it waving already only if you put ignition on but don't fire the bike or is the needle "jumping" across the scale even in idle?

if it shows "just" wrong values, that might have to do with you using a DMC without the proper (needed) filter.

If it is waving when you put on ignition already, there is a damage

If the signal "jumps" around, check the connection of the tacho signal coming from the coils, maybe a shortage. Else it is a defect tacho unit, which might need replacement or repair...

unit was just overhauled-shows a good idle but waves all over the joint when revving-sporadically reads ok-filter?im running reds sache ignition(new)
 
It might be necessary to re-wire the tacho input to the Sachse Unit tacho output maybe...? I think Red could maybe help better than me, have no experience with Sachse...  :-[
 
Andy,

The RGS tach depends on a certain dwell time of the coils to work properly.  Most aftermarket ignitions do not offer the correct parameters, hence the waving..... it's probably not the instrument at fault!  Hitch it to the tach output first.

You could always go back to the stock ignition set-up! :D
