Need to get my speedometer off my 06 fxdci handlebars, ideas?
I'm trying to mount a Hogtunes on my Memphis batwing fairing but the speedometer on the handlebars is in the way. I screwed up and forgot about the speedometers location!
They want a 25% restocking fee for the Hogtunes, so I'm not going to give up!
I don't see any options other than moving the speedometer so maybe a tank mounted speedometer is the best option.
Anyone know which tank with a speedometer mounted on it would fit my 06 superglide custom?
Would any 06 and above tank work? Anybody do this before?
Thanks for the help!

I forgot to add, the DS cup doesn't have a spot for the idiot lights, which is a challenge... I messed around with this on my old superglide for a while.
Maybe look at the new breakout gauge bracket?

It would interfere with the tank I think. He'd probably need much higher risers and a flat bar and a different mount. Drag specialties had a single gauge bracket for t-bars, or the HD sportster style cup and some clamps maybe...

I did this to my sportster (left side of forks):
I got a 3" (or whatever size the speedo is) roll cage gauge mount from summit.com. For the sportster I didn't have to cut or splice anything, the wires were long enough to relocate there. You just have to find something to do with the indicator lights. I double sided taped them to the back side of the risers.
