If the new speedo is cable driven, the Dakota Digital Transmission Speed Sensor won't work for you, because it's for an electrical speedometer.
 
aftermarket speedo...? I have a '96 Sportster 883 and i wanted to change the speedometer so i ordered a cable driven mini speedometer online but, i didnt think to check if the stock speedo was cable driven, come to find out its not.
Is there any way i can still use the new speedo that i ordered?

i dont know a whole lot about motorcycles, i am the only one i know who owns one and i dont have money to take it to a shop. im pretty good with my hands and would prefer to work on my bike myself. i just need some direction.

i also found this adapter thing online but i'm not sure if buying this will do me any good, can someone help?
these are the links to the speedometer that i ordered and the adapter that i might(?) need to order...
