Default Speedo Problem Resolved

Last month I traded in my Deluxe for a 05 RK Custom. I got a good deal all the way around. The one thing that was acting up was the speedo. The dealer told me he would make it right. The cleaned the speedo sensor, replaced the speedo sensor. Still acted up. After checking the whole harness and connections I was getting a little worried. They called the MO CO. tech services and they asked if it had braided spark plug wires. It did. They installed SE plug wires and problem is fixed. Talked to a friend of the old owner and he apparently installed them shortly before trading it in.

As far as going from a softail to a RK. I am all smiles. What a ride !!
