Dakota Digital MLX 8600 Series 6 Gauge Set For Harley 2004-2013

Dakota Digital MLX-8600 Series: The Ultimate 6-Gauge Digital Suite (2004–2013)

Elevate your cockpit to the cutting edge with the Dakota Digital MLX-8600 Series 6 Gauge Set. Specifically engineered for 2004–2013 Harley-Davidson Touring models, this kit is the most comprehensive digital instrumentation upgrade available for the Twin Cam era. Whether you are piloting a Street Glide, Road Glide, or Ultra Classic, the MLX-8600 replaces the dated factory analog dials with six high-resolution TFT displays. This system doesn’t just modernize your dash; it provides a wealth of V-Twin performance data with “at-a-glance” clarity, ensuring you stay connected to your machine’s vitals on every tour.

High-Contrast TFT Displays and Bluetooth Customization

Visibility is the hallmark of the Dakota Digital MLX Series. The MLX-8600 features high-contrast digital screens that are specifically designed to be sunlight-readable, eliminating the glare issues common with inferior digital gauges. With built-in Bluetooth integration, you can use the Dakota Digital smartphone app to customize your dashboard like never before. Choose from over 31 selectable illumination colors for the needles, digital readouts, and headers to match your custom paint or Stage 1 styling upgrade. The app also allows you to configure display layouts and set service reminders wirelessly.

Comprehensive Data and Performance Monitoring

The MLX-8600 6-gauge set offers much more than basic speed and RPM. This instrumentation upgrade provides a professional-grade monitoring system for your engine vitals and performance metrics. The kit includes the Speedometer, Tachometer, Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature, Fuel Level, and Voltmeter. Advanced features include:

• Performance Tracking: 0–60 mph timer, 1/4 mile time and speed, and high-speed/RPM recall.
• Gear Position: Large, easy-to-read digital indicator for 5 and 6-speed transmissions.
• System Indicators: Integrated icons for turn signals, high beam, neutral, low oil pressure, check engine, and ABS.
• Standard Data: Clock, odometer, dual trip meters, and “miles to service” countdown.

Seamless Plug-and-Play Installation

Dakota Digital has engineered the MLX-8600 to be a true bolt-on replacement for the factory fairing gauges. The system is designed to be “plug-and-play,” utilizing your bike’s existing wiring harness and sensors. This chassis service upgrade fits perfectly into the stock 2-inch and 4-inch fairing cutouts, maintaining a clean, professional appearance. It also features a user-programmable odometer that allows you to sync your bike’s original mileage during the initial setup, preserving your Harley-Davidson service history and resale value.

Built for the Demands of the Road

Proudly made in the USA, Dakota Digital components are built to survive the high-vibration environment of Twin Cam 88, 96, and 103 engines. The MLX-8600 series is weather-sealed against rain and dust, ensuring chassis reliability in all riding conditions. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, these gauges are a favorite among custom builders who demand V-Twin expertise and long-term durability. When you choose Dakota Digital, you are investing in the highest quality electronics available for your Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle.

Installation and Care Tips

To maintain the pristine finish of your TFT displays, we recommend using only a soft microfiber cloth for cleaning. During installation, ensure that the fairing gaskets are in good condition to provide a watertight seal behind the dash. If your bike is not currently equipped with an oil temperature sensor, you may need to add the Dakota Digital sensor (SEN-1043) to activate that specific gauge function. Always follow the factory torque specifications when reassembling your inner fairing to prevent stress on the gauge housings.
