Handle bar and speedo??
 
I have an Iron and will be getting the Biltwell keystone bars pretty soon, would also love to relocate the speedo, but not to the tank bolt, still want to be able to see the whole speedo.


I like the 48 speedo location, is it possible to use that speedo bracket if I relocated my headlight? Might go with the DK headlight and relocation anyways.


Does the 48 speedo bolt to my risers or would I have to get different risers?


Basically what would I have to do to make the 48 speedo bracket work on my Iron?


Thanks!

Don't the Iron and the 48 use the same speedo location?

No the iron has the speedo bracket that curves up, the 48 bracket is flatter which is what I want. Also the 48 headlight doesn't have the brow and mounts differently.


I'm not sure the 48 speedo bracket will mount to the same risers the iron has. As for the headlight relocation, I'm probably going to get the DK headlight and relocation kit, like the bullet style headlight a lot. So if I move the headlight down a bit, hoping there would be enough room for the 48 speedo bracket, but not sure if it's as simple as that?

Or this from Roland sands. It flattens your speedo down and gets rid of the eyebrow for the headlight.

Yeah the RSD one is basically what I want, but its a little pricey. Also can you use that with the stock riser and regular handlebars? All the ones I've seen are on cafes with clip ons. Plus it says café racer style.
I just saw the Easyriders one...does anyone make that style in the US?

Just went to the Harley dealer, saw the 72 horn bracket. Was wondering if you used that with the autometer shock strap would be like the easy riders bracket?
What do you guys think?
