Hello evo comrades~
I need some feedback.
Recently I got 1998 dyna and I can see many 1998 FXDWG with
two different genuine speedometers .

Here come pictures.

To my knowledge, the first speedometer is for evo and the second is
for 2000 and up. I'm right? or 1998 year was an odd year for speedometer?
Thanks for any feedback in advance.

 

What is it you are trying to do? Do you need a new one and trying to figure out what you need or is this just a curiosity type thing of wondering what the difference between them is.

 

I copied those speedometer pictures from 'the same' 1998 year dyna wide glides.
The letters of the first speedometer is in a line and the those of the second are double. I see many of FXDWG with two types of genuine speedometers.
I wonder Moco produced 1998 FXDWG with 2 types of speedometer.

 

So it's just a curiosity thing?

 

Interesting that one has a six digit display and the other is seven digit. I wonder if the word 'Certified' indicates something special? The only thing I can think of is a Police speedo that has been verified for accuracy. My Harleys are either significantly older or significantly newer and neither of them uses that word.

 

I always understood that the "certified" speedometers were made for police bikes, and they were calibrated and "certified" as to their accuracy.


At least when I've seen a "certified" speedometer, it was always on a police bike or an "ex" police bike.

 

The first pic is 98 correct. Its identical to mine...

 

Probably correct. My 94 FXRP says "Certified Police". My 2012 FLHP, oddly, just says Harley Davidson.

Yes, cop bikes keep finding me.
