Here is a stock D-Tracker unit. Not sure if the plugs are the same, but for $60 it would not be too expensive of a test project.

The other option would be a Vapor, which would also give you a tach and temp gauge, and could be programmed for either set of wheels in a couple of button pushes.

Is there any way to recalibrate the speedometer? I would think to just have an easily swappable unit, but I'm not sure how to develop an "EZ connector" up the fork for the new unit. What kind of electrical wire is used? How much is a new OEM unit from the SF or D-tracker?
Currently to use an S model speedometer on a D-tracker type hub, you need to remove a grease ring. It's not ideal, but it works just fine.
Not trying to screw anyone down the road, but anyone who runs their S model with small front tires will be putting false miles on their bike, like me. I don't really care as I am liking the bike more and more, especially since I replaced the fork springs and had a chance to try them out.
Hmmm.......
