Default Speedometer angle isssue after risers

Hi Folks,

I added the 4" angled risers to my FXD, now the speedometer is at too upright of an angle. I searchd around the threads but so far I can't see any pics due to my post count.

What kind of options do I have to lay the speedometer back a bit?

I saw some mention of the Sportster mount, which one do I need if I decide to go that way?

Thanks!

BW

If you went from straight risers to pullback style, you'll need to change your speedo bracket to the style for pullback risers.
