Not on my Road Glide but I had a 2002 RK Police before and the speedo went out twice. Traced it to a pinched wire under my seat. Might try that.

[&:] Thanks for the reply LakeRat. I was beginning to think no one cared.
I could live with out the speedo for a while but it takes the tach, brake lights, turn signals and horn with it. All of the other insturments remain on, so I don't think it's a fuse. It's still under warranty but it's a 100 mile drive to the dealer.
Thank again.

I had one wire in the plug at the back of the speedo come out enough to loose contact, not enough to see, took a few weeks to trace it.
