You may want to consider a replacement speedometer gauge face from Raceratb.com as an inexpensive and effective alternative while you go through the effort of obtaining a new cable. Mine's now accurate within 2% and it keeps your speedometer and odometer in sync, assuming that you're using stock DL1000 sprockets.

New one's on the left, stocker is on the right. Save the Speedo-Healer for when you change your gearing. With Austin's replacement gauge face your speed and mileage will both stay accurate when the Speedo-Healer works its electronic magic.

Great idea. Thanks for suggesting that. I like the idea of keeping the odometer accurate and I do not plan on re gearing so this would probably be better for me. How difficult was the installation?

Just ordered a second with one hash mark slightly thinner then the rest for $20 shipped.

Installation wasn't too difficult, instructions are adequate. Two potential "gotcha's" are 1) understanding how the plastic bodywork push-pins function (well documented elsewhere on this site) and 2) zeroing the speedometer a few times before reattaching the cover glass.

The cable is kinda' short and can be frustrating to fool with, but even I was able to figure it out and get everything back together without losing or breaking anything.

Thanks. In fairness to heal-Tech i should say that after my expressing my disappointment with them they did offer to upgrade me to a V4 if the cable didn't work. That should have been their first response. I also REALLY do not like the fact that Heal-Tech will not take a tech support phone call from a customer!!! I doubt i will ever buy anything from them again.
