My Tach is still dead, common problem..
After my bike was in the shop for 8 days they finally told me they can't get a new tach from CowaSucky
 Dead tach is a common problem and Kawsaki doesn't have any in stock for now. At least I got to go pick up my busted bike so I can ride again  To make myself feel better I just bought a nice mesh jacket, 2 pairs of gloves, 15/41 sprockets, bar end mirror, and a little 808 #11 keychain helmet cam plus a 8GB class 10 card for it  \- Joe |

so they're going to fix it for you once it's in stock, right? and they're going to make it up to you with an extended warranty...... right?

tach
200 miles and my tach just died too. sounds like similar problem. my question is whether it's safe to ride. bike seems ok otherwise although it's been idling high recently (3500 rpms). may be the weather.

Do we know exactly if this is an issue with the tach itself or if its an issue with the tach signal?

I had this issue as well and its because of a defective tach. Joe, I'm in MI as well and my dealer just ordered me a new tach and I am about to take my bike in. So its weird they are out of stock.
You can still ride it without a tach just makes you listen to your revs instead of relying on the tach. |

tach
no problem listening to the engine - just sucks to have a dead tach on a new bike. :-)
