what you find online are of two types .
1.expensive non contact ones , clamp the spark plug wire from outside and it gives u the readings
2.Connect to ignition wiring but scale is x1000. for bullet u need something which reads x100 and max 6k. And these again are expensive coz of the accuracy to another digit.

PS. if u find something , let me know . even I am looking for one.

I stumbled upon the image while doing a random search on google images
i could not get a direct link to the site because it uses ".php" extension.
Did some searching and this is what i stumbled upon
http://www.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com...cts.php?pid=48

the description states
"This is an electronic rev counter made by Smiths with a range of up to 8,000 revs. It has the classic looking black face with chrome rim. It is supplied with fixings and painted cup to hold it securely in place next to the speedo. It can be fitted on the left or right. It has a programmable ratio so can be used with the standard points or electronic ignition."

its is exhorbitantly priced at 199GBP and this does not include postage
when converted to INR it costs 15,382.

You can fir the TB instrument pod for the complete works. Else, try sourcing a RPM-only pod from bikes of yester-years and clamp them to the handlebar. TB's RPM pod has got a fuel indicator as well.

^^ Steeply overpriced and spoils the analog looks. Still, a good alternative to fixing stuff on handlebars. Additional feature: tripmeter.
