Thanks for the reply! I'm in the U.S. too and want MPH for the odometer and everyday riding, and the tach is something I want as well. I'm only interested in the KPH for watching my speed when driving in Canada as on occassion I pop up into BC from time to time, and its a PITA to always keep trying to convert MPH over to KPH while riding... and avoiding a speeding ticket from the RCMP.
This sounds like just the ticket... time to start putting away a few dollars to save up for one... thanks again!

My FatBoy feels like it's a train on railroad tracks. To make it lean, one has to give it a nudge if they're not holding the bars. Maybe it's the wide front tire, but I'm not sure. I thought that checking the front brake was a smart idea...too bad I didn't think of it.
My2010 Wg tracks true when ever I take my hands off which I do a fair amount of the time coming up to lights and stuff, I don't believe you should have a bike that will not track true there has to be something wrong

My bike did the same thing, and I couldn't even ride down my gravel road more than 15 mph, without almost losing it. Know what a tank slapper is? NOT cool. The dealer checked alignment, and said it was in spec, but I knew something wasn't right. I adjusted the rear wheel, so that the belt was running more center on the rear pulley, and found that the little holes on the swingarm for checking adjustment are off a little.
Now, I can ride no handed from here to california, and as fast as I want on a gravel road, without even a wobble.
