    I installed the speedo in the center of the bars and ran the cable through the ignition channel, so relocating the ignition was a must.

    Can you get a closer pic of the speedo?? I may have to reposition my ignition as well. Did you use 1/2 of a bar clamp to put it where you did? lookin' good...

    Some pics of the forward cotrols. I made a braket that bolts to the upper engine mount and replaced the bolts with new grade 8 bolts. Then drilled holes to mount the original pegs and built the controls around them. They're not pretty but functional, besides after a coat of black you won't be able to tell anyway.LOL

    Thank's SLKid I was going for black fast flames but it did turn out to look like a tiger.I had purple pin stripe tape around the flames but it all peeled off in the heat, I was very heated too at that point.

    I got the clubmans from JC Whitney for 22.50, just couldn't turn them down and I didn't have to change any of the cables or brake lines.

    I used the exact same bars on my bike, they rock, I'm looking to do a solo speedo also, but most are for 1"-1/2" bars, guess I'll look at my whitney catalog again.

    Hello Frankenbiker, look online, I believe it was 40.00 and they also have a matching Tach.

    I got the tail light from J&P Cycles, it's for a Harley Fat Bob. I just welded a couple of bolts on the inside of the fender and sloted the mounting holes on the bracket and it fit great.
