anywhere you want !
bars, trees, gas tank, motor mount, or
mirror, front wheel, oil tank, suicide shift knob, helmet.
the only limitations are your imagination and pocket book.......

What kind of gages? You can mount them on the risers, either with a bracket from the manufacturer or you can fab one. If you have round gages you'll have to mount them up top. If you have a Dakota Digital type you can go top or bottom, providing you have clearance over the tank. I'll try to post pics of how I mounted mine, I just have to reduce the file size but I need to get home to do it.

I'll try to get them up today. I ran the Dakota, but it's the same principle. Here's one for now but you can't see much.

OK, heres a pic of the setup, but again with the small file size it's kind of hard to see. If you want to message me with your email I can send you the full size hi res file. I fabbed my bracket, but all I did was reverse engineer a factory one. It's just sandwiched between the top and bottom of the riser. J&P, Drag Specialties or Custom Chrome should all have mounts that will suit your needs if you don't want to make it. As for mounting it below the bars, you might be able to but it will be tight.
