Default Where to mount speedometer after adding 8 inch pull back risers.

I have a 2008 super glide with the stock risers. My speedometer is a perfect place. But I want to add 8inch pull back risers with MX style bar's. Where to mount speedometer?

You need a gauge mount that clamps to your risers or one that goes under your top clamp. Several companies make them. Depending on how high you want your gauge on your risers you might need a wiring extension.

I have 7” Hardcase risers and they make a piece that allows you to mount your gauges under the top clamp.




Here’s one example. This is for 1.25 diameter but they do come in different sizes.
