No more microSpeed Speedometers

I am completely out of microSpeed Speedometers. I will not be making any more until I get the redesign complete. I am working on it; but it is going to take a while to get new screens made which will eliminate all of the problems.

The website still needs to be updated to remove the ordering; but I hope todo that soon.

Regards,

microSpeed production on hold

A couple month ago, I put a hold on all microSpeed production. Primarily it was due to 3 factors.

1. Touchscreen sensitivity was not consistant in all environments
The touch screen temporarily stops working, if there is excessive moisture on display or user; if casing is touching other metal. This was causing alot of customer issues and I wanted to solve the root problem before exposing more customers.

2. I had at least one field failure of unknown cause. I suspect there was a data corruption in the internal memory. This could potentially happen if the bike was turned off while still moving.

3. I had difficulty manufacturing the units. Because the 3 digits of the display are seperate components I would sometimes get epoxy leaking in between the digits and it would look bad.

I still have some units left which I plan to use to support the ~40 customers out there using the microSpeed Speedometer in cause they have issue.

I am working on resolving these issues and moving back into production again; however I don't know exactly when that will happen.

Stay tuned if your interested

New Speedway Instruments microSpeed Speedometer and Bike

In order to help promote our New microSpeed Speedometer I decided to re-make my 1200XL into a cool barhopper/bobber style bike.

Gone are the stock bars and instruments, seat, pipes, air cleaner, fender and paint.
Replace with 16" Burly narrow Apes, Mustand Tripper Solo, Vance & Hines Short shots, Kuryakyn Air Cleaner, and custom Speedway Instruments paint.

Premiering on the bike is the NEW ultra small Speedway Instruments microSpeed Speedometer. What you see is the entire unit, no seperate control box. It is plug and play into any Harley Davidson motorcycle with electronic speed sensor or directly into the late-model 2004 and later Harley Davidson with the J1850 digital bus. Additionally it will work on any metric bike as well if it has an electronic speed sensor.

The microSpeed Speedometer will be available in Febuary from Speedway Instruments or the 2009 Kuryakyn catalog and Kuryakyn Dealers.
