    Cutting the stock shield

    03 Instrument Cluster

    If there is a thread for this I apologize. I searched for one to no avail. This has happened to me three times. If the bike does not start on the first try and then try again, the trip meters and the clock will reset themselves to 0 and 1:00 respectively. Fortunatly the odometer stays the...
