Default Drag bars on a 2007 FXD

I am new to the forum (signed up yesterday) and have a 2007 Superglide. I am sure that many of you have solved this problem in an aesthetically pleasing way. I would like to swap out my buckhorn bars for drag bars and would like to see photos of how some of you have handled the speedo location. I prefer not to buy the Fat Bob tank. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They are not really drag bars, but the bars on the Screamin Eagle Dyna look great, and the speedo and tach are mounted to the bars

I put the 07 SE ones on mine but you can also use a accutronix mount to mount your speedo to any drag bars.

I am familiar with the FXD but not the FDX, was it a limited release in 2007?

I solved the speedo dillema by installing a dakota digital 2 1/16" speedo in the fuel gauge location. Now I run 8" risers with nighttrain bars. Speedo used to be on the clamp as seen in signature below

No need to apologize, just bustin' chops! Welcome to the forum.

Default bar swap

No pictures, but I put 4" pull back risers and a stock sportster set on mine. Closer together and further back. Gave a more natural wrist angle. Stock cables and brake lines were long enough.
