Replacement speedometers marry to a vin after 30 miles or so. Did you buy it used? It's likely married to another bike and is a paperweight. Far as I've seen HD won't fix it and neither will a speedometer shop.
Maybe someone will chime in with better news for you, I hope someone does.
Worst case you could just buy a new speedo and it should work.

It's all to protect us against speedo manipulation fraud.

Who's to say you didn't just steal that speedo from a bike and want to reset it and connect it to your bike?
Your only recourse is to purchase a new speedo or a speedo that has never been married to a bike before. Sorry.

Nope. Starting in 04 the mileage is in the computer not the speedometer like it was from 95 to 03 in the digital speedos. And of course analog speedos before that.

Harley will NOT reset speedometers that have previously been married to a bike. Like Joe said, the VIN error indicates that the new bike's VIN doesn't match the VIN of the bike that the speedo was previously connected. The factory will NOT reset it. It is, as stated, a paperweight.
