Default Streetbob Handlebar/tank question

Call me crazy, but I love the bars and the "unclutered" look of the speedo/bars on the Blackline, and I want to replicate that look on a 14 Streetbob. Anyone know if the stock Blackline triple tree would fit the streetbob, and if the panel on the Blackline tank would fit the streetbob?

Tank is bigger on the FXS, and the trees are wide glides, so IF you tried to swap stuff, you'd need upper and lower trees and a wide glide hub for your front wheel.

There are countless bars out there that will fit your SB without changing the front end. You just have to start searching for what you like.

Then find a bar clamp or clamp/riser combo that has a speedo mount, and you're good.

Joker Machine makes some cool clamps that might work for you.

your dyna forks wont work with black line trees, 49mm fork in a 41mm tree. you can get a 06-09 super glide tank and relocate your speedo to the bars, should be a simple swap.

The Harley drag bars I could live with. But I wouldn't be able to just relocate the speedo and use the Blackline tank plastic tank panel? I dont want the whole tank, just that center black panel.

if your really wanting to do this, look up the only dyna roland sands ever built on his website. a guy in so cal can make you a custom dash for a fxdb, and you will find the info on he relocated the speedo, or get a fork mount speedo from joker as already mentioned.

you need to take off your dyna dash and get some poster type thick paper, then cut out a template of what dash design you want and mark the spots for the bolt holes, then you will send the dash builder the template and in a few weeks you will have a dash. this is something i am currently in the process of doing i should send out my template soon. your template does not have to be 100% perfect and symmetrical, the builder will just use it as a base, but your bolt measurements need to be exact.


sounds like lots of work, but it is actually very simple

Damn. I was really hoping the dash would be just a simple switch. Looks like I'm the hunt for a leftover Blackline instead then. Thanks guys!
