I searched and found plenty about intermittent speedo failures - reading zero. Mine is failing differently: On the way home on a drone down the highway, I was rolling in the mid 70s when I goosed it for some passing mojo. I glanced down and the speedo was flipping digits wildly, erratically displaying from the 80s to over 100 randomly and very fast. I tested the failure more, finding that anything over 80 seems to cause this highly erratic display. Ideas? |

Mine is going in for the same thing on the 10th of this month. They are putting a instrument cluster in for the same issue u are having. I will let u know if it fixes it or not. |

I have money bet on both of you needing the VSS. Mine did the erratic speed and the drop to 0... usually first the erratic then the 0. Dealer did a cluster first = no change then a VSS. |

I agree Extreme. But I will let them replace it anyway for the updated firmware for another problem I have when it gets cold outside. (Message edited by Red93stang on November 03, 2011) |

thats just because that the 1125 is such a beast that it goes into warp speed but with the extremely flat torque curve you just dont realize Jake |

VSS for sure. The job takes a little time because of how its routed from right side to left side and how its tied off next to rear shock. |

Didn't make it to the dealer last weekend. Rode to and from work today. Was rock solid on the way in and began the erratic BS again halfway home. Eh whatever - speed's relative anyway. |
