Question Fat Bob 114 speedo on handlebar

Hello folks
I would like to remove the dash cover from my Fat Bob 114 and mount a Koso D2 on the handlebars instead.
Unfortunately I can't find any handlebar clamp with which I can mount this speedometer on the original Fat Bob 114 risers.
The diameter of the Fat Bob handlebar is too large, otherwise I could use the clamp of a Breakout 114 or Street Bob 114.
Any suggestions?

If you havent bought the Koso yet I can hook you up with a really good deal. I bought one for my street bob and traded in the bike about two weeks later. It is in brand new condition with box instructions etc.

You might look at this, it has the 1.25" clamping area. Pretty expensive for the whole set up, but the clamp might work with your risers. Part Number: 55900228

Who makes that clamp, I looked on the Koso site and it doesnt show there. Also, are these gauges plug and play?

The Fat Bob's bars are 1.5" diameter at the clamp, so I doubt that mount option would work.

This looks fine! But Crawmoto is right. Unfortunately the Fat Bob 114 has unique clamps with bigger diameter. It looks like I'll have to make a bracket myself and mount it on the original clamp...

That clamp is Harley Davidson. The website says it's not for the Fat Bob, but they aren't always accurate on what fits what.

The Fat Bob has 1.25" clamp.

The Koso gauge is plug-and-play and is super easy to install, but is not compatible with bikes equipped with traction control. i don't know anything about the clamps and risers!
