Definitely will. What did you use to chop the clamps off the speedo?

I didn't have to modify the speedo on mine. The speedometer was like it is now, it just bolted to the risers. It is a 2008 model though. They may have changed the way the stock speedometer mounts on newer models. What year is your bike?

2011 Iron, the speedo is stuck to the bar clamp, I may have to chop it off or just make something that'll work.

They must have changed them then. Mine was just bolted on top of the bar clamp. Don't know what to tell you about chopping it.
