Cablejudge is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Does Yankee Engineuity still exist?

They used to be part of Paughco (which also does not exist anymore?) or be part of the same group of companies. They made handlebar clamps and gauge mounts.
I am looking for options of changing the top of my tripple tree, especially moving the low hanging speedo / tach to the top.

See if you can find a manual machinist in your area. He can make you something to your taste that will actually fit.98% of the aftermarket junk won't fit and you'll have to redo it anyway.
