Default '07 Wolverine 74mph???

ok to start i am not new to this forum i just had issues with my last account. So today i was riding my wolverine and when I was going fast i took a double take at the speedometer to see that I was going 74mph. I wasn't seeing things because when my friend didn't believe me he got on and saw for himself, 74mph. i think there must be something wrong with the wire that reads how fast you are going because i have done nothing, no mods at all, completely stock. the only thing that has changed since last time i went top speed is the the negative wire on the battery came off but i fixed that. Does anyone know why it would have done this or what could have caused this? one day it's 53mph, the next day it's 74mph.

here's a pic 76mph...

Everything else working fine on the instrument panel? If so, maybe something to do with speedo cable. How fast do you think you were going when it said 76?

It says Km/h. Don't try and pull a fast one. 76 km/h works out to 47.22 MPH

i guess you really did reach 76 km/hr. pretty average for a fast rider like you i guess.

Ha, same thing happend to parents Rhino. They added an electronic instrument panal aftermarket and it got switched to km/h. Can't figure out how to change back for the life of me.

Hold the button and then turn the key on, it will turn back to mph. I think if you pull the battery it turns to kilometers.
