Thanks for your help, but I actually checked this and then called one of the Techs at JPC and he said it should fit. After a hour or so of googleing I found a couple sporty riders using them

I building some side mounts for them today. Put the speedo on the left and the tach on the right. Ive been meaning to see how it works for a little while. I might do both on the left, or I might get rid of the tach. It'll give me something to do today at least
