question, when you remove the speedo, do the wires just move with it? did you zip tie them to another set of wires?

When I installed the new risers and got rid of the old gauge mount I had to unsure the back of the speedo. Inside are two wires. I then routed them down threw the forks. I had to cut the black plastic around wjre harness to give them a lil slack and then I re taped it with some electrical tape. And then yes I just zip tied it back to the wire harness

Nice! looks good. I am looking to get a new tank, and my current speedo is mounted to the tank. This gives me a great cheap way to remount it. Only been on here a day and ive found some great stuff!
