Seems like the harness looped through the dash on my bike. I had to carefully remove a couple pins from the harness to put my new dash on, I didn't bother to mark the wires since there was only a couple and they lined up with same colors on the receiving side of the plug. There's a small barb that you can carefully press in with a dental pick or something of the sort, then pull the pin out. Something to do with the M2 tach I guess. Hope this helps, call me if you'd like more details and I'll go to the garage and walk through it 801-971-4493. -Mike |

Dude, i think you might have an early m2 dash... The gauges are different sizes |

I'm running a X1 dash and tach, needed slightly different sized foam gaskets for mine too. Didn't think that would apply, don't know if there were different sized tach's for the M2's |

in 99 they changed over to electronic speedo from cable driven, The cable speedo and tach combo was a smaller diameter than the newer sensor driven speedo/tach combo... |

Oh, the -97Y indicates an earlier pn doesn't it. So a panel spec'd for the earlier model years would have too large a hole. |

Opposite, the holes will be too small, i tried to get my gauges to fit into a 2000 dash, and it was way too big. Hes best to sell it off if its the buell one with the pegasus on it, those go for a decent amount of money. |
