Would you happen to have a part number for the riser clamp?

Are you talking about the clamp for the speedo or the top clamp for the bars?
You can use any top clamp, The one I used was the one from my 02 sporty, I just got one off of eBay for $8 and all I had to do was paint it. The clamp came from Summitt Racing in Akron, OH (Summittracing.com) and the part number is ATM3209

Can anyone give some more insight on what they used to make the auto-clamp and OEM seals on the Speedo work as to prevent water from getting into it? As mentioned earlier the rubber isnt wide enough and leaves a strip of the white plastic exposed plus doesnt provide the same preassure as the original casing to all rubber seals. Any insight/creative solutions would be awesome.

Wrap the speedo with electrical tape before you put it in the clamp. I did not do this yet and have had no problems with it getting wet so far.

Hey guys, Great thread!

In efforts to figuring out yet another way to mount the indicator lights, I am entertaining the idea of simply modyfing the stock handlebar/gauge mount. More over, I want to cut off the donut that holds the gauge with a band saw. I believe that there is enough "meat" between the bottom of the donut and the indicator holder for this to work.

Once cut, I would grind the bracket to a nice finish and paint or powdercoat it.

Water tight and stock looking.

So what do you think?
