Flush Gauges

Installed the flush mount gas gauge and fuel cap on the 14' street bob today. Took about an hour or so. I think it makes the tank look so much better (pics will be up tomorrow) but now I need to change the speedo. Anyone know of any good ones besides dakota digital?

The HD combo speedo/tach is a nice option. That's what I have been looking at for some time now...

Do you need to remove the tank to put these flush caps on?

No. But you do need to move it back a little to get to the speedo connector easily. You can get to it without moving the tank if you have very small hands, but it's a pain in the ***.

For the gas gauge you just have to be able to get at the harness under the tank. I was fortunate enough to get at it without having to do anything but finger it out of there.

Ok, I'll finger it out good, real good
