Didn't find any threads showing how people mounted their after market speedometers/tachometers.
I'm currently redoing my front end: Headlight, Gauges, Lights, Fork Gaiter, etc.
I started with the stock gauges, which i took off and labeled all the wires. The mini tachometer and speedometer (from DCC) fit on our bikes in the same holes the stock gauges fit in.
My problem was getting the ignition switch and lights mounted on there too. After not finding a decent solution online. i did the following.
Took the stock ignition switch, removed the rubbers grommets on the side brackets and left on side of the grommet so the nut on the gauges would fit on there (see pictures).
then i just put it all together. The gauges are obviously rotated, which is slightly annoying, but this is just until i find a more proper solution.
Once the headlight come in as well as the HID kit, ill post how i did that.
