I put the red gauges in my 09 SG. They look nice but have not been trouble free. They have stopped auto dimming when it gets dark and one of the segments has gone out in the clock. I've got an RMA to return the tach for repair but it's on my dime as the warranty ran out a couple of months ago. Considering what they cost and the problems I've had with them I doubt I'd spend the money on them again.

You can solve this easily , when I put them on my old bike it was several years old , I had the dealer certify my miles before removing the old speedo and verify what I set the new one to , on my 2011 I didn't do that because I have the sales receipt , I bought them a month before the new bike arrived and changed them out immediately , I doubt anyone would look at when I bought the bike and gages and not be able to figure out they were put on new
a true reading unless they change the the gauges with the old ones being accurate. Unfortunately with digital gauges, this is not how most are installed, imo.

Just to update my previous post in this thread.
I sent my tach back for repair, expecting to get a call telling me what it was going to cost to repair since it was out of warranty. A few days later I got a call telling me they received it and would be sending out a new replacement at no cost. All I can say is wow. I never expected great customer service like that. In my other post I said I probably wouldn't buy another set but with customer support and service like that Dakota Digital has changed my mind.
