There ya go, man. Should provide a more relaxed hand position for you. That orange is awesome. Sucks about the snow.

Awesome man. I think that's the relocate I have seen on Amazon for a steal. You can get that one with a replacement top clamp that will hold the indicators. What did you do with your indicators?

I did the speedo relocation not today but since you where talking about this item, this is how I did it.

I took a cheap Chinese bracket and altered this one,

Thanks for the suggestion. You did a great job customizing that bracket to make it work for you, it looks really good.
