Title: Sticky Rev counter needle
Post by: mattye on January 29, 2012, 09:30:58 AM

Hi All,
When I started my bike up yesterday, and the speedo and rev counter needles go right round in a self test, the rev counter needle got stuck on the 10000 rpm number. I turned the ignition off and did it agin and the needle was ok but then kept getting stuck at various points on the dial. After about 20minutes of riding it went back to normal operation.

Anyone else seen this kind of problem?

Cheers all.

Not seen it on the GTR but my Audi has started to do that very thing. No idea why

I think a trip to the dealers is required and I'll get them to look at it when its in for a service.

Cheers

I reckon its a fault indicator - by that i mean needle at 10k RPM means a particular fault
