When I first got my 2001, it had intermittent speedo problems. I finally found that one of the electrical connections inside of the batwing had some corrosion. I pulled the batwing, the undid every plug and cleaned the pins with an electrical contact cleaner. That took care of it.

Look at the wiring inside the fairing.
The wires that go to the gauge.
You will likely observe a dirty,broken or disconnected wire going to speedometer.
