I have seen someone that have it on the tank with the console just like a fat boy but I don't know if he switched the tank or just put the console on the tank

Harley makes a mounting kit that mounts it to the fork tube. I think it was "Enforcer" who reversed his so that the speedo is mounted in front of the risers.

I think someone in the "Everything Breakout" thread reversed the speedo mount.
