It looks like the magnetic sensor comes with a bolt with a magnet in it's head to replace a rotor bolt. If that bolt is the wrong diameter you can buy different size bolts with magnets from Trail Tech.

Yeah its too small. I may just find a replacement rear sensor all together. But the stock one in non magnetic and only has 2 wires and the aftermarket ones have 3. The Daytona one has two wires but ive tried many combos to catch the signal but nothing. Im considering the gps option now.

I would stick with the sensor they supplied since you know it should be compatible with the meter. Almost all other speed sensors do not use a magnetic pickup, and there is no standard diameter or length or bolt pattern. The sensor needs to be positioned where the magnet passes under the end, not the center. Air gap needs to be about 0.020" - 0.050".

Do you have a picture of your sensor mounting?
