| Just picked up my new vision from dealer on my way home my radio volume was acting erratic and so was my spedo. I have less than 100mi and my dealer is closed. They installed the ipod connectivity cable |

You know it has to go back to the dealership.
Have them disconnect the 2 into 1 IPod cable and see if that corrects it.
My guess is they connected the cable incorrectly. |

| Ill look at the ipod hookup to see if its right. It sucks that it a new out of crate 2010 Ness Vision #82. I had no problems what so ever with my Jackpot for 2yrs. Problem happened at 75mi. Go figure this will have to wait until Monday. I love this bike and want to enjoy it now. Thanks for the replies. |

I guess the iPod dosn't use a cable either.
The point is, It has nothing to do with the iPod and everything to do with the speedo malfunctioning.

| checked the terminals before I started thread. I gave the harness a decent jiggle and rode 20 miles with no problems. As for the spedo problems the spedo will set itself when I turn the key on. The spedo will not work at all or the needle will bounce up and down while riding. As long its will start I'm. gonna ride it sans spedo and radio until the shop can get it in.

That should take care of the radio. I do not know about the speedometer issues.
