I believe it "marries" to the original bike's vin after 31 miles. I am not sure it can be swapped from what I have seen.

So, that speedo is "married" to the previous bike, and I do not believe it can be "divorced" to use on another bike now. There may be some electronics wizard somewhere in the world that could possibly figure it out, but chances are, you bought an unusable unit. Probably should try to return it and get a refund.
