Best way would be to go to a HARLEY dealer parts department and ask then to print out the instructions for installing an H-D tachomater add on kit.

SOURCE: wiring diagram for mini tachometer

Most aftermarket tachs have 3 wires. 1 is the 12 VDC "power", 1 is a black ground wire, and 1 wire provides the "signal" to the unit from the secondary side of the ignition coil.

Tachometer signal for aftermarket unit, 2003 dodge ram 2500 van

You will need a wiring diagram but I suspect you can't install it without creating problems in the ignition system. If you can hook it up it will need to pick up its signal from the crankshaft position sensor output line.

Specifically I'm trying to identify the wire on the spark plug coil assembly to which I should connect the signal wire of a Tachometer to. The wire colours are, red, yellow, green/white, and blue.

It says the tachometer wire is Yellow/Green, you do not have that listed. You will find it in the list below, it is highlighted..
