Interesting question! No idea, but if you have a few minutes to spare it would be worth using a parts website to see if there are any Sportster models with the same speedo as a Softail. In the past H-D actually only used just a few instruments across much of their range of bikes, but I'm not so sure about today.

I think you might throw people off with the term "Speedometer". Are you referring to the "INSTRUMENT MODULE"?
Compatible with a 2014 Sportster? ... Can't imagine it
For your sake, I hope I'm wrong

2014 Sporties definitely have a speedo - current Softails however are a different kettle of fish....
I suspect you will bump into electronic compatibility problems between that instrument and your Sporty.

A friend of mine builds race car chassis for a living. He often says that you can build almost anything you can dream up, as long as you have enough time, money and talent.
In this case, I think the easiest way to get the new Street Bob instrument cluster (which is very slick, btw) on your ride is to sell your Sportster and buy a new Street Bob.

This is probably a hard no due to the different bus options on the bikes. I ran into an issue like this trying to put a speedo from one of the newer bikes on my old 2012 dyna. ..... that was long ago and there may now be a work around .
