You'd probably be better off hiring the guy that built it to install a speedometer.

naaa i will not pay someone to do a simple speedo install... no way! plus i am not going to fly the bike back to miami... i have done many ground up builds but all of my builds have had cable speedos off the front wheel... he is wanting someting a bit sleeker being that everyting is internal on the bike... why do that when i have this awesome forum to help me out

That bike may be better suited for a rocker box speedo install like what Wimmer Machine sells. Getting anything up on the bars may look out of place, an add on. There are a handful of guys on Chopperweb who use wireless bicycle speedos for their simplicity, again I think it will look out of place.
