I replaced the points with a Pertronix 1 system about 10 years ago.  The tach
always bounced around for the most part with points or Pertronix.  You can
adjust the stock tach by turning a pointer screw inside of the case.  One of
the Tiger web sites shows the location of the adjustment screw and where you
can drill a hole in the case to get to it.  You drill a hole through the case
so a screwdriver can adjust the tach while mounted.  You just need a good
reference tach and match the two together at a given rpm, say 3000 rpm.
Adjusting the tach did make a difference and seems to be more accurate.

Here is a couple of helpful tach links:
