Digital speedo/tach

Hi,

I have recently installed a brushed aluminium digital speedo/tach on my 2009 Road King Classic. The range function shows 150 mile on a full tank whereas my original speedo showed 240ish miles and at 3/4 full it will show 100 miles. According to the instructions the unit should learn my riding patterns but after several fill ups it seems my unit is a slow learner.

Also the misting up of the face is far worse than the original. Anybody else had these problems and if so how did you overcome them?

Cheers in advance for any and all advice.

Regards,

Chris.

England.

I have the same gas issue with my combination digital speedometer/analog tachometer gauge. It shows around 280km at full instead of the old 340km, and instead of "learning" my range it has remained very pessimistic. So I ignore it and use the original gas gauge on the fuel tank, which is pretty accurate.

Haven't had any fogging issues though.
