don't fix it. it's safer to go with the flow of traffic + a little more.

and since ur mileage won't be going up... you can resell the bike for a lot more than if the miles were real. But... u gotta tell them the speedo doesn't work.

 

I'll just fix it before I sell it lol. No I like all of my stuff to work. Personal preference.

 

YUP, MINE TOO. I thought my only problem was the speed sensor. I was riding today and just found out that my odometer is stuck at 16,000 - tripometer isn't working - AND - low fuel segments aren't working.Now I'm assuming its not the speedsensor but maybe a loose ground / connection before the ECU. Anyone yet with my problems too?

 

if the speedo isnt working, its not going to count the mileage

 

really? it doesn't indicate when you have low fuel? that's weird. maybe that's just another problem you have in coincidence with your speedo problem. You're the first I know that has the speedo problem + fuel level problem.

 

Well - I think its the old domino effect; one problem causing another. The low fuel segments worked fine unitl now. I've had the speedo playing games for months though. The segments came on while riding but were not flashing even after 30 miles!! I knew something was not right. When I went to get gas, the tank was almost bone dry. I'm hoping its one thing thats causing this crap to happen. SPEEDO DID WORK WHEN I DID THE FOLLOWING:
Disconnected the grey plug from the ECU and spun the rear tire!!Butwhen I plug it back in - NOTHING. What the hell is this? If its a badspeed sensor, thenwhy did it work??? WHAT DID YOU GUYS DO TO RESOLVE YOUR SPEED SENSOR ISSUE? Thanx for anything.

 

i fixed my speedometer problem. i replaced the speed sensor and what a job that was. its located in the tightest place to reach on the bike. took awhile but finally got it done and everything's back together and all is fine now.

 

I THINK I too fixed my problem but still not sure yet cause I haven't rode bike yet. I FINALLY knocked on the speed sensor's door and told that sucker to get the hell out. Time for a replacement. I checked for pulse voltage and yes it is pulsing. So far soo good! But the real test will be tomorrow when I freeway it. As far as taking things apart and as mentioned earlier with other people, The easiest way to get to sensor is to: Remove Fuel Tank, Remove Shocks, and Get the tubes out of way. Anything more than this is a waste of time unless you want to. Thanx everyone for all the advice.

 

YUP, Speed Sensor WAS the problem. Everything normal now.
