Hmmmm ok fitted 999 wheels and rear caliper with the 999 caliper mounting bracket. Unfortunately the speedo sensor sticks through slightly too much and rubs on the bolts as the rotor goes around. I changed them for mushroom head bolts to solve this and..... yes I know you're shouting it at me by now, it didn't work. Note to self - Magnetic sensors do not like non-magnetic metals!! OK so that explains why me speedo doesn't move when i'm riding.
However, and this is the big question, the engine warning light also comes on permanently now. As soon as I start the engine and it stays on throughout the ride. It doesn't seem to cause any problems and everything is working perfectly (apart from the speedo). Could the warning light by because the speedo isn't detecting the bolts (although why does it come on when stationary) or could the slight scoring of the rubber cover on the speedo sensor, from wheeling the bike around with the bigger bolts, have damaged the sensor? If it has would that therefor mean the engine warning light would come on?
I can only think (and hope) that it is this as I have not touched anything else which would cause it to come on. Fitted termis andf race ecu/airbox about a week ago and that didn't cause it then. Just recently cut my baffles down by about 70% but don't think it could be that!?

Any help to save me taking it to Ducati and paying £50 per hour!
