Ya I agree its probally the most dramatic change of anything Ive done. Just ahead of the chrome motor package. I dont think the pics do it justice either, it looks better in person.

WOW! That looks sweeeet. All us FXD owners are jealous. Good solution if you don't like the stock speedo setup, plus you get a tach too. A set of smaller mirrors and you're done . . . for now. Can't wait to see some pics w/the bike outside.

Yup, I'm jealous! I want to do something bad with that black OEM speedo stickin' out. The 07 FXDSE Bars come complete with the cups for tach and speedo with idiot lights? Looks great!
