Default FXD Speedo Relocation
I got tired of the stock bars and seedo in my face. I switched to drag bars and some 6 1/2" risers with 2" pullback. I picked up the Drag Specialities single speedo mount for 1 1/4" thick risers. With this configuration, I was able to remove the speedo from top of the clamp or front of the risers to under the top clamp on the back side of the bars. The result is amazing. Now, what to do with the idiot light bar?

Many folks have used the Sportster custom riser set up, this allows for the speedo to be moved and keeps idiot lights in the top clamp
