You’ll need to do a load test on the battery to determine if you have a bad cell.

Thanks for the input. Did a load test and charged battery, everything turns out 100% Any thoughts?
Thanks, Bruce

Since the battery tests fine and assuming the rest of the electrical works fine, I’d say the speedo needs to be replaced.

Update. I contacted Dakota and they walked me through how to test the guage unit. Turns out there was a bad circuit breaker in the power section of the guage, caused by my battery charger and leaving it hooked up while I started the bike, power spike. I took the unit off and sent it to Dakota for repairs. Great company to do business with.
Only charged me $50.00 bucks to repair and send back.
Took 1 week. Thanks for all the input.
