Tach on mine? It has one. Two, actually. The gauge cluster has a ton of different modes. Basically, you get two piece of information displayed on the main face, and a digital bar tach on the right side. For the two pieces on the main face, one is large and the other (underneath it) is small. You can basically pick from any combination of digital information. Tach, Clock, Trip 1, Trip 2, MPH/KPH, and a bunch of other shit I don't use.

Most of the time, I have MPH on the top and the digital tach on the bottom.

Tach-wise, the only thing missing is some kind of visible indicator of where redline is in relation to your current RPMs. You just get a feel for it, or hit the rev limiter.

Example attached.
