Default Speedo Relocation

Hey yall, I've asked this in the Dyna section with not much avail and since the sportsters have the similar style speedo mounted above the handle bars, where did yall remount it and how? I'm planning on getting a set of 10" WC T-Bars and the factory speedo mount wont fit... I'm looking for ideas that yall may have done.
Thanks!

You can do pretty much whatever you want. I'm a big fan of the bucket (actual pod and not ring clamp) from Autometer.

this one:

here's one on the side



and here's a couple up top









but there are a couple guys here that have used dealership parts and they turned out super nice...I'm just a tight ***.

Speedo fits secure in that bucket? Is there much to still being able to use the reset button? Ive got the clamp and dont much like it, that bucket looks much better.

Speedo fits really tight. There are holes in the bottom and in the side of the bucket which you can use for the wiring and the reset button or you can easily drill yours...There is also enough space inside the bucket to hide the excess wiring...IMO looks far better than the clamp...
