insurance - model may say on the title. tack - not sure if there is a relay or a fuse that might need checked. |

in the older model there is a fuse that would stop the tach from running is you look at the wiring diagram HERE being that the ninja's really didn't change that much from generation to generation I would look there. Same thing happened to my VFR once but it was the rest of the cluster that went out, so I swapped the fuse to I could get to the store to get a new one. So I had no tach but had everything else working. I would look there.

For your insurance, you should be able to type in the VIN alone and it'll figure it out for you.. (with Geico, at least)
For the tach, check out this thread: http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Speedometer_Error It may or may not help.. Not sure how different the new bikes are! Welcome aboard!
