Rooti, not trying to hijack this thread, but I love the color of your Harley. Evan more I like your bars and riser. Did you need to change out your cables?
I'm 5'6" so I'm wondering if they are more of a reach? I have a 09 Super Glide Custom. Anyways, good looking Dyna.

Joe, thanks for the compliment. The bars are bikers choice t-bars and are all one piece. (no risers) They were only 96 bucks new including delivery. I didn't have to change any cables. They come out close to the stock bars for reach but are a bit higher and not so damn much wrist angle. I relocated the turn signals and internally wired the bars.

Here's a link to the thread I had going about them:

Not sure but I don't think you can use the tack as there is no sensor for it and it would have to be mechanical. But I could be wrong.

Good luck with your project.

But, if gauges are the main concern, you can just get a plug and play Dakota Digital, and be done with it.

I was talking about FXDL and FXDB, not the FXD tank he already has. A guy posted saying he had an FXDB tank to trade him for his standard FXD tank

Yeah the tanks are definitely different. My tank has the center filler while the LR tank I want has the filler on the right side of the tank... I looked at Dakota digital but I REALLY prefer the OEM analog gauges ... not a fan of Dakota's stuff.
