Default Black Speedo Trim Ring Interest?

I have looked all over for these and the only place I can find is this one, from a place in Germany. I want one and will order them and ship them to those in the US that want one since $35 for shipping is a lot! If you are interested let me know:

Interesting . Looks better than the plastic crap HD sells.

make sure you get the right one as one is for the larger speedometer on the sport glide and they have another option for the dual gauge set up for the low rider and low rider s

It is pretty easy to pull the gauge and paint the ring. Much less expensive and doesn't look as bulky around the gauge.

I want the bulk since it would go on my Fatboy Anniversary model. Painting chrome is not that easy either!

The Harley ring is machined aluminum.
https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...-in/p/61400437

It's $58 from Surdyke with free shipping if you buy $169 or more.

I've got the Harley ring on my Fat Bob and I love it far more than I ever thought I would. It looks great, and it stops the stupid sun reflection from the stock chrome ring.

Nothing wrong with that European one, if you like it better then go for it, it's just twice the price after shipping charges and I can recommend the Harley ring.

Thanks for the info but it will not fit my 2020 Fatboy. If someone finds one that will fit for less I will buy it.

Whoa - you're totally right. Sorry, I used a 2018 Fat Boy to look it up, but when I use the 2020, it doesn't show up. Sorry 'bout that.
