Default Tsukayu Batwing fairing

Let me start by saying I know some will say don't put a fairing on a sportster. But it is what I want for my bike so to me that's what matters. To each his own.
Now, I don't have a stock sporty any more. While back I put a raked wide glide front end on it. Question I have is that I still have the speedo mounted on the handlebar clamp. This company says their fairing will not work with my speedo set-up. Was wondering if any of the bike guru's on here ciuld give some advice. Do you know of anyone who's put one of these on their sportster? If so, did they indeed have to move the speedo? If so, where did they relocate it to? My sporty started as a 2007 XL883L. Any advice or info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
BTW- it is the stock size speedo, not a mini or digital. Just upgraded it to the SE spun aluminum model. Tsukayu Batwing fairing-dusty.jpg
