Unfortunately, there are no analog tachs or speedos sold for karts.

4-cycle? Yes! The one in my truck!

Unfortunately, analog tachs for 1,2, or 3 cylinder engines are pretty hard to come by. IIRC, on the home page of this website, there is a link to a how-to on converting an aftermarket automotive tach for single cylinder duty.

Have a look here.

Looks pretty common to me. Just a normal old monster tach for a car. Well for 2 cylinders or more..

Edit: Well, heres one that is 1~10 cylinders.

Interesting, but $150, I dont think so. I find it hard to believe that with as much demand for analog gauges as there seems to be around here, no one manufactures them.

Here's my tacometer.

The less time it shows before my first bathroom run, the more tacos I ate.

Equus 8068 model or something like that makes a tach around 80 bucks that will work on single cylinder engine....

truthfully I wanted to see if I could get the cheap Harbor Freight tach to work on my clone engines

Here is the tach mentioned above. It comes with an inductive pick-up that you clamp on the spark plug wire. I tested it out on a HF 6.5 HP engine. My local oreily's had it in stock.

This is your best bet. I too did not want a digital reading and this is the cheapest analog tach I could find.

 

[Banditz]

Digi one's can be had at any true value for under $40. Analog, well..i am not sure.

 

[Justin9]

If you wanted to spend the time, with some resistors or a pot, you can re-tune the car analog tach to work with a single cylinder... but you would need something to compare it too... like a tiny tach or something that was a known good tach so you could dial in the resistors, or the pot (which would be easier in my opinion)
