I bought the new retro "medallion" Speedo for my 08 K-9.

I like it, washed the bike a few times since installing, no problems with fogging up.

Worth the money to me.. :cheers:

A big thanks to BDM Performance parts.:2thumbs:

Pic of Speedo, not from my bike.

did you install it yourself and was it difficult? can you set the mileage like a dakota digital?

You could do it yourself, it didn't look that hard. The speedo came with instructions.

I took my Dog to Britt Motorsports in Wilmington, NC. They have several mechanics there, but they have one certain guy they let work on Big Dogs. His name is "Carlos", He did a great job and was a nice guy to deal with. :cheers:

I've seen the Dakota up close and personal. Nice piece. But for me, I waited on the BDM speedo. With the BDM, you get analog and digital readings.

Sweeeeet!

I assume it fits into the original factory Bigdog speedo housing...........

I like that it replaces the annunciator board (tack bargraph and indicator LEDs), so with one install, you remedy any future problems, unlike the Dakota Digital version.

Does it come with an upper visor ring? Can someone show a side angle view picture.

This first link is the mode I would use most often with RPM on the main analog gauge.

I ordered one last Thrusday and they will set the miles before shipping. They also said that I would receive it in three working days. Hope they are right.
