Had a faultless 7 years since i bought this my third evo sportster. It has stock engine and frame, but retro styled with shovel head rear end, oil tank, switches and controls. The issue I think , maybe is it has a 1999 softail dash and speedo mounted on a Dyna tank, calibrated for the standard 2005 loom.
All running gear fine, starts and runs fine, no problems except suddenly indicators stopped working. then a couple of days later no brake light. then when I turn the ignition on all lights on the dash come on including a little red key light and the yellow engine light . never ever seen them before, and the odometer readout is there. but when the bike's running it disappears., and the speedo doesnt work. then I stop it . turn ignition back on and all four indicators flash. four times and so on, random. otherwise everything runs fine. As its not standard I dont know if it has the security stuff mentioned in the owners guide, and there's no obvious place to plug in an OBD.
waddya think?
And can I keep riding even though there's these electric problems. ?
I can live with no indicators and easily rig a brake light, hey I was brought up on Brits with Joe Lucas Prince of Darkness gear.....
