Default FXD Speedo relocate

Anyone have any details on this setup?




Looks to be sportster bars and top clamp.... cant tell how the speedo is mounted but I like it.. It was posted here by a forum member that hasnt been around in a couple years. Couldnt find any details on it.


Thanks

Looks like it screws on the top of the tree cap.

Default Speedo Mount

The bike is a Dyna Super Glide. The mount looks similar to one that bberck had on his bike. It is close but not exact. If you go to his member page you will see his bike and there is one pic from behind the bike that shows his setup.
BTW He also mounted a chrome dash in one pic that held the speedo, so check them all out.

bbreck used a handlebar mounted cup to mount is speedo with the drag bars... The pic above the cup apears to be affixed to the steering cap. I do like is setup too though.

I like your setup better than the one in the original post.

Thanks. The speedo housing is a sportster part and the dummy light plate was machined by a local machine shop.

Stagg that looks awesome. Do you remember where you bought those from or what they came off of?

I don't remember exactly what part numbers but everything was Harley other than the dummy light piece. Everything was from the sportster line. Harley didn't make a piece to cover the dummy lights in a size I needed so with the help of my father, we got a local machine shop to make one.

I used a Drag Specialties single speedo mount. Works above or below risers. Here mounted on my 6 1/2 risers. I relocated the idiot lights to the tank console.
