It pulls a little harder than before but as I was test riding it, I noticed that my speedo stopped working... I need help cause I can't figure out why it happened.

Bah... knowing how fast you are rolling and how many miles are racked up is over-rated...


Honestly though, did you possibly disconnect the speedo cable/sensor?

The speedo sensor ( i think ) is on the sprocket cover of this bike...

Guessing Spy007 has it right and you've unplugged it...

Well everything is hooked back in how it was so I dk what could be causing the problem.

Does your bike have a diagnostic ability with the instrument cluster?

I don't think so, I just got to work and I think I know what the problem might be...

I just dropped a tooth on my front sprocket too ! on my R1
It does get the front end up a bit easier.:)
Glad you solved the speedeo problem your self rather than paying someone

Nice dude, it certainly helps but I still have to bounce her pretty hard to get the front end up decently. With just gas it comes up like an inch or so..... Pretty new to the whole wheelie deal so I'm still practicing hehehe.... I just took the service manual from work and figured it out, one of the techs here helped me out with it.

My speedo sensor rotor finally came in today, just installed it and it feels good to see how fast I'm going lol..... I calibrated with my cousin's car and its only 2-3 mph off the actual speed. I was expecting worse but hell I'm good lol
