Default Speedometer signal question

I've got an idea that I wont talk much about until my project is complete. I need to get a speed signal to a plc. What is the best way to tap into the speedometer without causing issues with my speedometer. Or my abs. In ways I want to run dual speedos. Can I do that off the one sensor? I'm working on a 2015 electra glide.

PLC as in programmable logic controller? I'm curious what kind of mad scientist **** you're up to? I can't help with the speedo. My guess is it will mess with the CanBus system and malfunction.

Yea I know what a plc is. If I can figure this out I will let you see what I'm doing. I just dont want to add another sensor to get the speed for what I'm doing. My idea needs a speed signal. I've googled my idea a million times for the last 2 years. Google hasn't stole it yet so very few know what I'm up too.
