it mountsto the riser of the bars, you can adjust the height. you could always weld on some bungs to the risers and eliminate the need for the bracket.

if you are using cable clamps it's pretty fool proof. clamp the big end around the risers at whatever height you want. bolt the guage bracket onto the small holes on the clamps, some adjusting will be neccessary to get the spacing down and the height where you want it. tighten everything up and crack a beer. If it's the accutronix same deal. position it where u want tighten it up, move onto the beer.. On my old sporty I took 2 8mm deep sockets, and 2 longr bolts. I mounted the guage cluster to the top of the headlight eyebrow. I opened up the holes on the cluster a lil with a unibit, and it took a some fiddling with different bolts and washers to make it look/fit nice, but it cost nothing ( i already had the sockets and hardware). No pics of any of it, you are gonna have to use your imagination. And that "Ask Jax"comment was kinda funny even though it was lame as fvck

The thing is on the 14" t-bars if you want them low on your bars it will be easier, but if you want to raise your tach and speedo higher you have to make extensions for the wiring. Doing that will take more than 1 beer.

Right on thanks!!! Its just sad that SOA had to ruin the kind of bikes I been riding for years. It was one thing when nobody had ever seen it and said it looked funky, now all I get is this Jax bullsh** and its getting old!
Thanks for the input homie!

Right on I see what you are saying. I want my fairing to hide my speedo and tach so, I guess it will work just fine!
Thanks for the input!
