Can you provide a link to this autometer ultra-lite II speedo?
And does their site have a PDF of the installation instructions?

Uhm, as Heirloom noticed, that particular model is not meant for an external application as it's not waterproof.
While their Pro Cycle Model would be waterproofed...

But you should call and ask them if they have a wiring harness for a VTX or metric bike.

I'm about to hook up my new Speedo/Tach/Dummylights and have found that the wiring diagram in the Service manual shows a different harness than what I have in my hand. I have an extra Brown wire??? Have to get around to calling the dealer on that question.

My fun really starts when I get to try to figure out if their Red = my Pnk/Gr ... if their Green = my Blk/Gr ... etc, etc,etc!!  :o

A p*ss poor pic, but, this is the AutoMeter tach I put on years ago.  It has served me well and looks good.  The mount is an integral part of the chromed billet handlebar clamp.....the Formotion clock is still working great and on its' first battery, also.  The tach keeps me from hitting the rev limiter when some squid on a little crotch rocket wants to leave a red light in a hurry  ;).

Hey Wolf, yours is the first bike I've seen with its' own "do rag"........what's with the orange towel around the triple clamps?  BTW, those are some really good looking pipes. They just look like they would sound great!  O0
