Nice... no wonder i couldn't find them. windshields...that makes perfect sense

EDIT: update
i picked up these brackets yesterday and got them installed. they seem okay, the fit isn't perfect on one side. not exaclty the look i was hoping for. they stick out pretty far and my stock indicators are HUGE, kind of looks goofy. also, they sit pretty low (i knew they mounted to the lower pinch bolts but couldn't really visualize it until they were on there). i would have liked them closer to the headlight and tighter to the forks. if i had it to do over i would probabaly use the fork mounting brackets that are available to bring the directionals in and up. i might do this and get some sleeker bullet style lights in the future. overall, not bad, i still prefer it to the lights hanging off the handle bars. one step closer to drag bars.

That's exactly what I did. I just made my own, though. I also have the risers and handlebar off of a Night Train.

Quik question, my bike is an '05 just wondering if the speed will come out of the housing it is in, because I want a tach and the speedo house is part of the handle bar clamp, so can the speedo itself be rmoved and paced in another housing? TK

still messing with this myself. i am trying to figure out a way to not mount the speedo to the brow... i am not big fan of it sitting as forward as it is right now, but moving it up another inch and a half really isn't ideal. id like to hide it somehow, but i guess thats only an option with the tank mount speedo models (softails, wideglides). i wonder if i can custom make a braket that will bolt to the risers on the 2 bolts that are tank side and have the speedo on the tank side of the risers... that would be cool. anyone seen anything like this? the night train bars and risers are a great idea.... wonder where i can get me a set?

I had a friend that bought a brand new night train. He got it home and put a different set up on it. I walked into his garage and offered him 50.00 bucks for the risers and bars. I figured it was wortha shot. He took it. I figure if I had bought that stuff new from the stealer, it would have cost me around $175.00.

cool. i know we keep bugging you, but i would really like to see pics. i am really close to getting the stuff together for this swap and i would really like to see how 6" risers look. i am thinking of going a little shorter for asthetic purposes.... but i am depserate to see how 6" risers look on a dyna. the geometry of the night train is differnt eenough that i can really tell how it will look on an fxd.

thanks a lot
