Default Winter Mods already ?

Hey everyone,

Just starting to think of the mods I'll be doing this winter and wanted to see what everyone else had in mind ...

I am buying parts little by little so that by the time winter sets in I'll be ready to install everything. So far I am installing 32 inch drag bars, heat wrapping the headers with black heat wrap, and torn about what to do with the speedo ... Does any1 kno if a stock 48 speedo bracket will fit on an iron without having to lower the headlight and eyebrow ? also I was looking into just going the autometere route if thats a no go ... what are your guys experiences with relocating the speedo with the autometer ?

Thanks guys and look forward to seeing what your plans are
ride safe
