Speedometers

Inaccuracy Inherent:

Most bike speedometers are "off" in accuracy. You should test your speedo and odo with a measured mile or with one of the "You are Going XX in YY " radar speed checkers. Or on the Dyno, if you are check / tuning performance or probably most easily with a GPS

Recalibrators: These will recalibrate your speedo to show actual speed. They are available from several different vendors.

Speedo bulb replacement

Replacement Bulb - standard #24 bulb, miniature wedge base. any auto parts store will have them.

Hawgstar: To get at the bulbs after removing the speedo: "The rubber has a groove in it that fits a shoulder on the inside of the hole to make it water tight. Just dig your finger nail into one side of the rubber and use a firm steady pull...it'll come...then the bulb just pulls out of the socket...".
