RE: tach speedo help
If you're just talking about the mounting brackets etc. They might fit, but I doubt it. If you're talkin about the actual gauges, no. The 1995 Sporty had mechanical speedo, the 2004 has all electronic guages.

RE: tach speedo help
They make a tachometer kit for particular year rangeSportsters.You alsenneed to order the appropriate bracket for mounting both the original equip speedometer and the Harley Davidson tachometer (which is electronic). I put one on my 2005, but it took almost 2.5 weeks for it to come from the factory. About 1.5 hour installation. It was the first mod I did.

RE: tach speedo help
I also wanted a tach, at first. I searched and searched, but never found a better, or less expensive, alternative to the HD tach. Then when I learned the bikes have a rev limiter, I wasn't as interested in the tach. It would be handy 411, but I no longer worry about doing damage to the engine.

RE: tach speedo help
yea I found out about the rev limiter....I just would like to know how much further I can go with the bike. I am a dragon junkie so I ride mine hard as hell while im there but on the way up and what not I take it easy. So I do not see just in spending the ridculous amount of money on one for while I am up there....
