Default Alternate Dash

OK all you Harley tech guys...Can a Road King or other touring dash be installed on a Deluxe without too much trouble?..The Deluxe dash doesn't make it as far as I'm concerned and there isn't much to choose from on the aftermarket scene either. I thought I'd take a full length RK, or other touring model dash and use it on my Deluxe. Is that's possible?... Thanks Blooz

Yes, but I suppose you could not use that. Maybe you could just glue it to the tank.

Depends on the year. Probably work if you an older RK dash when they had five gallon tanks.
