Reproduction speedometer Problems?
« on: July 14, 2016, 09:14:16 PM »
Hey guys yet another problem with the bike. With just 4100 miles on it tonight my speedometers odometer and trip odometer went intermittent and is basically dead. Speedometer reads speed just fine but odometers only registered 1.1 miles on a 14 mile trip. 

Im gonna want to replace it and am thinking about buying another reproduction unit but thinking this time i will buy one in KM/H because Im in Canada....

Just wondering if anyone else has had issues with the reproduction speedometers as I would rather not flush another $160 CAD down the toilet if they are problematic....

Have you ruled out the cable?

Yeah I forgot to mention the speedometer works perfectly and its just the odometers that have died, I updated my original post
