So I took her out for the first ride of my ownership and she rode like a dream, however I noticed the speedometer is not working, all other parts of the gauge is working except for the speedo. I checked to see if the mileage was recording and it is not, and the needle does move when the bike is turned on, so I'm thinking that the wiring is not working somewhere, any advice or locations I should check? Thank you in advanced.

Speedo sensor is mounted to rear caliper bracket, wiring is routed along with the rear brake hose.

IIRC, it connects to the harness just a bit forward of the right rear motor mount.

You've got a wave rotor on the rear, it may not have the pins for the sensor to trigger on.

So after talking to the previous owner he said the speedo stopped working after he installed the power commander  [bang]
Anyone heard of this happening before and know of a way to fix it, other than disconnecting the power commander?

You might want to start a new thread about this as a build thread won't gain the attention of the power commander geeks. ;D

Removed the old clutch, and replaced with new parts, I think it looks really good! Can't wait to see how the clutch feels.





I have been looking everywhere for this Clutch Cover, where did you find it??

Fyi, if the bike happen to fall and land on the clutch basket, it will sheer the springs right off and leave you stranded. Just keep that in mind.

That's always a risk with open clutch covers, the only way I see of preventing that is by having a closed clutch cover. I guess it just comes down to whether or not the risk is worth it to have the clutch vented and having an awesome looking clutch cover.

The pc shouldnt affect speedo. Check the rotor sensor spacing sensor connnecor then check with another sensor if all that fails.
