does the FXD have speedo on the clamp?
cool thing is if you have the mount that bolts to the clamp it can be moved and bolted to the right rocker cover! then you can run a clean setup. I would put your hands out where you want em and go from there... some 10" chopper risers(no pullback) on drags is cool. If you want the hands higher get some nice apes that get your knuckles in the wind. Post a picture of your bike so we can see what your ridin.

My bike is the black Bob...my brother has the silver Superglide.

He used the Duece risers, drag bars, an Accutronix guage mount and a stock speedo mount from an older Superglide.

The Accutronix mount comes in different diameters and is meaant for mounting on T-bars...make sure you have the risers so you can measure and get the right size.

I'm going to change out my mini apes for t-bars this winter and will be looking at selling the apes with the stock cables, hose and kuryakan grips.

I love my drags on my Bob. Would not trade them, ever. Ever, Ever.

Drags Bars for me. Street Slammers @ 50% off and no cable changes (needed new rise bushings though) on my 07 FXDC.

Done and done by my lonesome and for cheap. I need to start up that DIY I took pictures for.
