MCL-30K-SPD 

 

Thank you for purchasing the Dakota Digital MCL-30K-SPD gauge for your Harley Davidson Touring bike.  This is 
designed to be a replacement for all touring models from 1996 – 2003.  This is part of a six gauge package for touring 
models so you can add additional gauges as you choose. 

 
INSTALLATION 
 

First read and familiarize yourself with all of the components and this manual. The first step is to remove the 

seat and disconnect the negative side of the battery, as with any electronic install. Once the battery is disconnected you 
are ready to start.   

Remove the outer fairing for FLHT models; this will vary from model to model, please follow the service manual 

to expose the wiring and gauges.  Road Glide (FLTR) models will not need the outer fairing removed. 

 

Ultra (FLHT) with outer removed 

 

Remove Factory Gauges 

Now you are ready to start unplugging and removing the original speedometer.   

 

ULTRA FLHT (batwing fairings) 

Remove the clamps that hold the Speed and Tach in place with a screw driver or wrench depending on 

application, and remove the gauges. 

   

 

Remove speedo cable/unplug gauges              Remove nuts/screws and clamp to remove factory gauges 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE!

  

This gauge has an odometer preset option that is only available for the first 

100 miles (160km) of operation. See “preset odometer” for instructions.
