Speedometer
WARNINGTravel at speeds appropriate for road and conditions and never travel faster than posted speed limit. Excessive speed can cause loss of vehicle control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00008a)
See Figure 1 and Figure 2. The speedometer registers forward vehicle speed in miles per hour (U.S.) or kilometers per hour (international).
Instrument backlighting activates after a slight delay. The backlighting may briefly fluctuate when ambient lighting changes (such as going through a tunnel).
Tachometer
NOTICE
See OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS section. Do not operate the engine above maximum safe RPM as shown under OPERATION (red zone on tachometer). Lower the RPM by upshifting to a higher gear or reducing the amount of throttle. Failure to lower RPM may cause equipment damage. (00159a)
See Figure 1. Some vehicles have an analog tachometer. The tachometer measures the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm x 100).
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
FLHR/FLHRC: The fuel gauge is on the left side of the fuel tank. See Controls and Indicators → Fuel Filler Cap.
Other models: See Figure 1. The fuel gauge is on the instrument panel.
Voltmeter
See Figure 1. Some vehicles have a voltmeter. The voltmeter indicates the measured electrical system voltage. With the engine running above 1500 rpm, the voltmeter should register 13.0-14.5 volts with battery at full charge.
Vehicle Information: Models Except FLHR/FLHRC
Additional vehicle information can be displayed within the infotainment system by pressing the vehicle information switch. See Controls and Indicators → Hand Controls.
