Installing Tachometer

Has anyone installed a tachometer on a newer generation Suzuki? Where do you get the trigger signal for the tachometer?

Try to find Hall effect sensor and check to see if you can pick up a signal from there.

On recent Engine Management System found on modern vehicles, the signal for the tachometer is usually generated from an Electronic Control Unit which derives the information from either the crankshaft or camshaft speed sensor.

The Tachometer is a cool feature to have, but I find it a little disturbing while on a long ride. I can feel the engine's reverberation and can shift gears smoothly. I don't rely on a tachometer for shifting, it's very hard to monitor the tachometer and shift gear on traffic.
