there is a guy on this forum who modified and relocated his speedo moving the speedo to the risers using clamps and the dummie lights to the tank panel. it was actually a very cleaver idea! cleaned the bike up nice.
I did that, too. However, it's not an off-the-shelf item. Didn't cost much at all, though. I really like the speedo/tach mounted low and behind the risers. The dash mounted idiots aren't quite as handy, but as handy as any dash mounted lights. They are mounted between the gas cap and fuel gauge.

I hate the fxd speedo setup (makes everyone think its a sportster), but was cheaper to get it & buy a lowrider tank/wg dash (like bberck) than buy another bike.
It pisses me off to No end with all the compliments i get -
those that don't know harleys "Damn that's a nice sportster!"
and those that think they know "That sounds good! Is it a 1200 or 883?"

lmao yeah. or after you tell a person who is asking about it that is a "fuel injected 1584" they say "wow thats a huge engine! sounds like you have a great carburetor!"
those parts come from the MoCo or was that a DIY project?
The mount itself is a sporty mount. The other pieces are the stock items cut down and fiberglassed in. Original wiring is long enough to reach.
