RE: Lost odometer rubber cover and button
Loc-tite doesn't do awhole lotfor plastic. Yours is tight because you tightened it. Now XXX thinks I'm a great guy because his switch was loose and he would rather post for a day on what happened with his switch. Sorry for lightening everyones day. Grandpa always said, "you need to tighten that up." Now I'm theone taking it in the shortsbecause it fell in the fairing. Did you think the "Storm Troopers" came and stole it? I am sorry for throwing the blanket on everything but I guess common sense runs low here. I guess jlacasci's response to "what if" my switch dis-apperars makes you fell better on getting to a consclusion, beats "tighten it up." I will stay on the 5th gear tranny whine forum from now on

Ok, so this thread is 3 years old. Thought I'd give it a bump after searching through about 200 pages of everything but this.
Part number is 67880-94
Price is about $2
fits 94 and up.
Hell, this is my first Harley and I'm learning all the quirks. Went to reset my odometer last night after filling up and pushed that damn button right into the fairing. Just changed the speakers about 2 weeks ago so at least I have some practice at getting that fairing off.

Almost too late 😟

WARNING: check your odometer ****/button - before it is too late!!!
My rubber **** tore, so I came looking for information on how to replace it. Ended up here. So glad I did. Ran back out to my 09 Softail and sure enough the **** was so loose it was ready to fall off.
Tightened it up with my fingers.
Still need to replace the torn rubber part but at least it's not going to disappear on me now. Thanks guys for this post.

Well, well - another knobbie bites the dust- maybe this is a factory DEFECT!!!!!! (I knew it wasn't just me.)
HELLO HARLEY - ANYBODY HOME??????????
Check out my story in this thread I started two months ago on the same issue [:-][:-][:-]

GOOD LUCK screwing that baby back on - pain in the A$$.
Careful - LockTite may mess up the switch like it did mine.
But I preferred to do it rather than the stealer doing a half a$$ job and having it happen again and again and again...................

You can get the rubber boot on ebay.
The 05 I bought almost two years ago with less than 2000 miles on it must have been loose too cause it was gone one day when I went to check miles also.
