Default Digital Dakota Speedometer
Anyone using one of these speedometer/tachometer/gear indicator/oil pressure guages?
I saw one being demonstrated at my local indy and they look awesome but the proce tag of five hundred is steep.

This is one of the older ones that Digital Dakota sold or sells

The one in the ebay post is an old one. This link shows the new one that repalces the stock speedo with a digital one that has more dosplays. I really like it but 500 bucks is high although I'm still contemplating .

Check around on pricing, I have one on my 2006 Street Bob with the SE 120R it works excellent. I only paid $350 shipped to the door for mine.

I have one on my Road King. Looks and works awesome! No regrets. If the price were lower, everybody would have one. Kinda like Harley's, huh?

Is the tach hard to read on them? I heard the numbers go so fast that it's difficult to read.

I have mine readout similar to an analog tach, sweeps across the top with the 5000 rpm peg lit as a reference. The digital readout is a bit on the small side and can be tough to read going down the road.

Thanks for the replies, next ?
Did you opt for the blue or red guage? I"m partial to the blue but wonder if it is harder to see in direct sun.
