I have a 94 sporty with a 2008 V-Rod front end. So now my problem is that the 3/4 inch speedometer cable drive obviously wont fit on my 1'' axle. Do they make something to adapt? Or can/should I convert to rear speedometer and do they make one for belt drive. Rather not go the rear route if i can help it. Either way any advice would be much obliged. Thanx
