Default Looking to change FXD speedo position?

Here isa good deal on a speedo mount setup if you are looking for a change on your Superglide speedo. I did it and like it a lot. A much cheaper option than changing everything to move the speedo to the tank. Make note that this deal comes with some extras you could resell if you dont need them.
This will not work with a tank lift due to clearance issues.

I was going that route but the bidding went crazy and I ended up changing tank out. You can get deals either way you just have to be patient.

Looks good - but I agree with smiley - this bid is going to end in someone spending too much for not much change.
All it does is flip the speedo to the tank side of the bars and chrome/cover up things a bit .
Does not really change the flexibility of bar styles does it?
Still can't use drag style bars.
Does look great.

that looks like the stock spedo mount/riser on the custom sportser model. probably can get at H-D new if you don't win the bidding.

you can use drag bars with this.

Take a look at my other posts if you want to see how it turned out when I did it. I like the integrated risers because it moved the stock bars up and back a bit so it improved my riding position. Any more change to the risers woul have required "streching" the wires and brake line (buying longer ones). The best thing I liked was more room for windshield adjustment without the speedo in the way.
