Drag bar/Speedo problems
Hey everyone,
I'm having some issues installing drag bars on my '05 1200 custom Sportster. I was told that I can't get lower risers (these ones: https://www.jpcycles.com/product/214...ght-1-7-risers) because the speedo won't be able to fit underneath. If this is the case, is there any other way that I can mount the speedometer on? I'm going to attach a picture of my setup below as a reference!

You only real option is to replace the riser assembly and speedo housing with one off a standard (non C) Sporty model. There's been a number of threads posted over the past few years on how to do it and the parts required.

Speedo relocation is another option. Oem location with drag bars look kind of funny anyway.
