RE: speedo relocation kit
Hey Dan,
Its not a speedo relocation kit persay but rather the old style gauge mount with indicator light holes for XL/Dyna models that was designed to bolt to the handlebar top clamp but we instead bolted it to the brow mounts on the triple tree (which requires a little bit of elongating of the bolt holes to fit the customs like mine). You can use sockets as spacers to raise it or depending upon the model you have (a regular or custom) you can bolt it right the the brow like i did and still have headlight clearance. The guage mount I used was not a stock Harley part but a Vtwin model just like it and I purchased it here
http://www.discountcycleparts.com/xcart/customer/search.php?part_number=39-0212or you can get it even cheaper right now at Debrix: http://stores.channeladvisor.com/debrixcycles/?sck=18627390
You will also need to change out the housing for your indicator lights and will need the following:
Speedo/Tach Rear cushion gasket (you'll reuse the front one) #67104-95 cost $5.62 Warning light Bezel #68513-95 cost $1.64 Warning light housing #68516-95 cost $7.03 Warning light jewel cover #68551-95 cost 3.25.
I orderd all of this through https://www.zanottimotor.com/shopping/partLookUp.html as they're cheaper than any other Harley dealer by far (about 20% off MSRP).
Basically, if you use this method and parts you can relocate it for about $50 or less. In my case I completely changed out my bars and risers and did away with the stock tall pullback riser with integreted speedo mount and needed a cheap solution.

RE: speedo relocation kit
Well, if you have a 4.5 gallon tank, most likely ok. Peanut tank is a bit taller, it may hit the speedometer if you do it my way.

RE: speedo relocation kit
128auto- \\; I just purchased a 2007 Dyna Super Glide and agree with the opinions of this forum - I dislike the stock location of the speedo. \\; I liked your customization! \\; Here did you buy the bracket to mount the speedo on the bottom of the bar (over the tank)? \\; Do you think it would work configured the way you did yours with a bar and risers or maybe a street slammer bar with intigrated risers? \\; Any info you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
