Riding this AM and the speedometer and tach just quit on me, along with that the turn signals stopped as well. Any ideas? Bike still runs fine, headlights, horn and stop lamps work.

Hey Hammer, it sounds like a ground issue or your battery isn't up to snuff.

I had the same problem.
Changed the battery and cleaned up the grounding points.
All is well.

I had that issue at Deals Gap. After it rained like a mofo. Problem was water got into the unused European parking/running light that is in between the headlights. This was on a 12S. Dried up the water in there, filled it with silicon and never had another issue. Just another possibility, depending on your bike.

Rocket hit it on the head. Go figure.

etennuly.... Not that I care about the speedo but the tach bothered me.

Lion, quickboard....quick question. Also we have these profile things that you can look at to see what type of bike we have. Thats also another area of the board. Thanks for the tip.
