swapping gauges
Been thinking about swapping out my black face gauge for a set of the white faced streeglide gauges. What i'm wondering about is the speedo. Will it just go to the mileage that is current on the bike or will it have to be programmed by the dealer to show correct mileage ? I was thinking the information was stored in the ECM. These old eyes i have sure can see the white faced gauges better.
Sorry forgot to say what bike, 15 tri-glide

Keep in mind that any accessory $'s that you put into your bike go with the bike 
If you're not planning on keeping this bike for a long time you should consider this before spending the $'s.
My riding partner installed new gauges (and many other accessories) on his '10 Ultra and had more invested in it than I have in my '13 CVO and he lost a LOT of $'s on that bike.

I installed the CVO version on my bike and had no issues. The mileage is stored in the ECM. My B trip indicator never counted backwards.
