When Polaris,brought out the digital speedo in 2000 they made it a acting component of the AWD system for some crazy reasoning.

The speedo must be there and work to have AWD.

I think Polaris knows the speedo is located in such a place that it will be the first thing to smash even in a minor rollover ,being that the speedo is located at the highest point of the ATV.

At $300 per replacement Polaris rakes the cash in.

In 99 the speedos were analog cable input types, if they broke or guit it was up to you to fix it or not,because it effect nothing with the AWD system.

Analog Type on our 97 500
