Potentially, yes, however................

You'll need to check a few things first, like how the tachometer is triggered and the number of cylinders that the bike had as this should match what you have in the car.

You'll also need to check what inputs the clocks get from the bike ECU and double check that you can get the same pulses etc from other sources (for example the r1 clocks take the pulse from the ecu for the tachometer).

To calibrate the speedo you'll also need somethiong like a 'speedohealer' http://www.speedohealer.com/eng/intro.htm

So in summary, you'll need to do you homework first and make sure that you can get all the inputs with appropriate calibration to the clocks!
