OP jethro666 3/4 Throttle Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 999 Dundalk Maryland USA	i took off my stock speedo and mounted an indian speedo in the tach hole. i love the naked handlebars!! unfortunately the dang thing quit after 8 miles! i happened to look down when it peaked at 85 mph and then wavered at 70 to 80 (while accelerating) and then quit. i haven't checked the cable yet, hopefully it was the speedo and not the cable. has anyone attempted a dakota digital speedo?

I've seen some of these on eBay, but w/o any measurements. Thanks! "Wise men speak because they have something to say, fools because they have to say something."
