Yes you are stuck with that one.
I didn't like that one because the tach is too small for me to see good.
If it was a 4 inch I could help you out but I don't have any 5 inch.

That's one you have to be careful of, there are three versions but only one photo regardless of what is in the box. One MPH only, one KMH only and another that has KMH primary and MPH secondary markings. Unfortunately you ordered it and unless they are feeling kind you are on the hook for it. Who did you order from? Have you called and explained the issue? Worst case - you can probably sell it to someone in Canada without loosing too much.

Well they are alllowing me to return it.Shipping will be on me and they state that if they deam they are at fault for the error they will not charge the usual 20% restocking fee.So I thanked them and also asked them if the "restocking fee" is the last 40 bucks they would like to make off me!Since the description states the guage reads" miles to empty",they are in error,whether they want to admit it or not is another story.

we'll see who's gonna glom up the profits for the pipes, bags ,floorboards, cams and various other options I've got planned!

Don't know who you ordered from but all the online dealers have the same policy. You plugged in a number and ordered - don't see that as their fault.

First line of the features also reads:

Maintain the clean view over the handlebar. This unique Combination Speedometer/Analog Tachometer allows you to monitor engine speed, fixed segment fuel level and gear indication, without adding additional handlebar-mounted gauges.
  • Displays kilometers/hour only
  • Unit mounts in the stock dash opening and is a direct plug-in installation
  • Gauges feature speedometer and tachometer pointers that sweep clockwise to provide a "gauge within a gauge" look
  • Backlit gauges include a large LCD information screen that displays odometer/tripmeter data, miles to empty readings, an easy-to-read segmented fuel display, and a gear position indicator
  • Features push-button adjustable backlighting with over 600 color tone options, allowing the rider to adjust pointer, LCD and backlighting colors to match any paint scheme or viewing preference

that's from the Harley Website.I bought from a dealer.They clearly had the wrong part pictured.That is false advertisement,paint it any color you wish.The specs on the site do not state " Displays kilometers/hour only ".

**** me once your mistake,**** me twice,my mistake...won't be makin that mistake with my money and that dealer ever again!
