Nice looking dash.
I like it that you have indicator lights for oil/temp alarm -

it irks me when guys don't,
and then post "I hear an alarm and the motor slows down - how should I fix it?"

Yamaha makes a nice (3 styles, actually) 2" hour meter -
which can be connected to the tach input -
so it only counts when the engine is running

but looks like you can't put fit in your dash -

and its pricey, at least $100 just to be to tucked away somewhere


I don't know how easy it is to find an inexpensive 'generic' hour meter that will work off the tach

certainly can get one that will count 'key on' time such as

I thought that fairdeal does not get irked.
