I have a 2012 Softail Slim. I bought it used and it had 6xxx miles on it. One day I cranked it and it had only like 650 miles. The speedo has never been changed or messed with. Anyone else have this happen?

Are you sure you did not hit the button to display trip A or B?

I know this is your first post, haven't been here long myself but this is the touring section. There is a section for all different HD models or general Harley chat.
