Default Nostalgic speedo/tach question

I just installed the nostalgic speedo/tach on the bike and noticed that the odometer always has the mileage up even when the bike is off. Anyone else have this unit and is this normal? Thanks.

Default Same here

I have the same one on my 09RK. The mileage seems to be the default setting. I can get mine to show all the other readings (A&B) and time but only when the bike is running. If you check the install instructions, maybe there is something written about this. If you don't have them anymore, go to the HD website and there should be a pdf file available.

Duh! Thanks Watch Guy-the online instructions state that on some kits, the odometer will stay on with the ignition off. That info wasn't in the instructions that came with the unit. Thanks again.
