Will it fit my bike?

V-Rod  (Night Rod Special 2007 onwards)
NOTE:  **Universal**   The Micro Dash will work on any Harley Davidson motorcycle application regardless of  model unless there is a key fob security device that communicates with the original gauges featured on the motorcycle.

The Micro Dash utilises the pinnacle of LCD technology culminating in the perfect contrast for daytime clarity and backlighting at night. 

The Dash is machined from billet aluminium for superior durability.  The Dash offers user defined `cool blue' or `soft red' backlighting, gear position indication, comprises a 7 Mega-bright LED shiftlight array for optimum rpm gear shifts, a lap timer which is operated manually by the sealed tactile waterproof button which is assembled into a CNC machined handle bar bracket suitable for Harley Davidson switch gear housings.  There is a large sweeping bar graph type rpm indicator, speed reading, also temperature, battery voltage, neutral selection and high beam activation and 2 input channels which are ideal for indicators.  You can select between KMH or MPH configurations and there is a user defined low fuel level warning indication. 

The Micro Dash comes with a mounting plate used to attach the Micro Dash into the original gauge position on a motorcycle.  All Micro Dash systems feature a universal wiring harness and fitting kit which can be custom fitted to any Harley Davidson motorcycle other than motorcycles with built-in security devices that communicate between the ignition key and the original OEM gauges.  The Micro Dash is weatherproof to IP66 specifications.

General information

The Micro Dash requires attaching to your existing wiring loom. The universal wiring harness supplied have been designed to lay through the bike so the appropriate wires fall into their respective positions close to the connection areas.  Typically there are 7 wires to connect if all the features are required, neutral, high beam, indicators left and right, oil pressure/level, +12v ignition on supply and RPM sensing.  

The temperature sensor is supplied in the universal harness and is a copper ring terminal thermister type, very accurate. This sensor is attached to one of the thermostat housing bolts on the back of the block on the opposite side to the exhaust headers. The software within the Micro Dash compensates for the temperature differential between the inside and the outside of the head surface, approximately 4-6 degrees. The Micro Dash is mounted using the mounting plate supplied with the kit. 

Electronic speed sensor

The retro-fit speed sensor needs to be positioned so it is directed at between 2 and 6 ferrous metal targets rotating on the rear wheel, either the sprocket nuts or the brake disc rivets are ideal, (stainless steel or aluminium nuts/rivets are not suitable).  A universal bracket is supplied with each Micro Dash kit.
