Rolsmith, I have the wheel in that position but my vertically challenged self (5'6") is having the tach blocked by the rim and not the spokes. If I was shorter it would be fine, if I was much taller it would be fine but sadly I am not taller and god forbid being any shorter. That is the reason I was interested in swapping the tach to the passenger side.
Dan, I thought it might be a rev limiter but without a dealer to ask I thought I would start looking here. 5200 might have been reached so I will pursue that train of thought. Thanks.
my wife made me a 4" cushion which really helps with seeing the gauges as well as having a better sense of where the front of the M3W is.
