My 2001 glide,has a speedo problem,that it has had sense it was new in 2001. when your bike is cold,the speedo won't register. I get going about 40mph,and kill my motor,put it in 5th come out on the clutch slow,when it fire's the speedo works,9 times out of 10. I've had it at Harley shop at least 7 time's about this.they gave me a new speedo gauge when it was new and under warrenty.One time they changed the speed senser,on the transmission.Called me said come,and get it,I did it stopped working before I could get home. I put a 6 speed gear set in it in 2003,and I got a recalibration unit to put inline,to adjust for the new gear.It worked fine for about 3 month's then started again. Well I have it down to check it out.I've got 12 volt's to the recail unit,all connection's seem to be good. It'll stop working,and you can unplug one side of the recail unit and plug it up again.it'll work for a few time's then the same thing happen's.this sounds like the problem you are having with your bike.I'm trying to get some answer's also&nbsp\\;

Had a simular problem with my 01 road glide.
&nbsp\\;
Question, does it happen after a rain or a wash?
