Just bought a 1989 Ultra Classic, this is my first Harley although I've had other bikes before. something i find i want to upgrade is my gauges but i havent had any luck finding anything aftermarket. I would like a more modern ultra/street glide type style. im not sure if you can just swap out any old gauge or if you have to buy a specific type. like i said, new to Harley's so be easy on me. anybody know where to point me in the right direction? thanks!
Unfortunatly, there is zero from the aftermarket and zero from the dealer for that.
It is easiest to clean them up and polish them and live with it. If that is not going to fly, then buy an inner and outer fairing from a 1996 to 2013 Glide and get busy with a factory manual / wiring diagrams to wire in new style gauges to the existing bike.
