I bought the combination speedometer tachometer for my 07 Heritage, hated it, both gauges were too small to be be of any value. As I recall it was about $500, I did manage to sell it for a couple hundred bucks (which was about what it was worth).

Cheers,
Paul in Colorado

"pt 2.) push button fuel release. was on my bike when i bought it...it failed. Dealer gave me a replacement...it locked shut 800 miles from home. was able to release with feeler gauges after about 90 minutes...and was able to re-fuel just before the gas station closed"

I had a similar experience with this part, as well. Ended up taking it off and putting the factory original (key) release back on...

Fairing mount mirrors still in the box-- that other thread saved me!

Push button 'lock type' fuel release. Never could open the thing with gloves on as the button is too deep. Replaced with larger dome button W/no lock and has been great for 2 years.

I like my Roland Sands Domino wheels. But less than two years later, purple already. No more for me, thanks......
