Is the title a mistake?  When I had a CB750, the speedo read higher than 120MPH,  and the red line on the rev counter was at 8,oooRPM

A quick google suggests not, https://www.wemoto.com/bike/honda/cb/750/1975/15705/speedometer-mph?srsltid=AfmBOoqcOVe2JkEvAWGm9CAvtfwCQ7tcfGwkhYS94VN7OwZdYaGLXZ4i

Based on the above, for a 750 - tacho for a 750 is also different than a 500/550 as it uses a different ratio.

Now that could explain quite a lot.
I read recently of someone who had fitted a set to a 750, and found the speedo to be accurate,  but the tachometer to under read badly.
Well if Emgo designed it to match the 550 drive ratio, that could explain why.
I already have a pair of these, bought new for around £100 from someone who had decided  "not to use them after all "
Looks like I might be having the tachometer in pieces soon  then.
Looks like I'll have to find a way to weaken the return spring, if that makes any sense to you.
