Picked up an 1125R with 6500 miles on it for 5k. Not without a couple little electrical quirks. I have a CEL showing up dealer is working with Harley Tech for a Fix because they replaced the ECU and it did not fix the CEL auxillary code they cant clear. Loose wire I would think somewhere. Also an intermittant speedo issue. I saw on the search someone mentioned a horn issue that triggered the speedo to malfunction. Pointers anyone? I wlll check the horn wiring when I get home.

VSS (speed sensor) above the clutch, right side.

What's the CEL error?

mine was having a speedo issue where it would zero out every once and a wile, un-pluged it and cleaned the connection and haven't had the problem again yet. Just an idea to give a try.

The lead to the horn came loose one time and shorted out and when I hit the horn button it popped the fuse which also knocks out the tail light and the Speedo. I replaced the fuse, replugged the horn connector and the problem has not reoccurred.

okay update. I think its the VSS. The horn is fine and the tail light is fine. Thanks for the tips. I picked up the part at a Harley dealer. Suprisingly enough it was in stock 83.00. Thanks for the help.

d adams its a p1601 code. aux systems error. The ECU allegedly was suppose to correct it. Still waiting for a response from HD. In the meantime Erik Buell Racing told me.

"The aux system code is indicating a failure in the aux power circuit. Unless you bought a kit and added an outlet the wires just go to a plugged connector. Or the aux relay or wiring could be bad."

Vss is done looks like it was the culprit for speedo error. Now just the aux code issue.
