Howdy All,

Searched through these threads but the only fault I found with our speedos are their inaccuracies. Has anyone had their speedo crap out and read 0 km/h whilst travelling? Thought nothing of it the first time, but it has become more regular in the last 500 kms.

My bike is only 1100 km young, so will have the dealership check it out during its first service next week.

Cheers, Micky T

On the front sprocket is a magnet and a speedsensor in the cover.
Check them first, perhaps dirt or a loose fixing bolt

Have you changed out the screen? If you have +1 on the plug in the back of the housing...

Did the tach also quit? +2 on the plug..

If not, +1 on the reader at the front sprocket.
