Ya'll know I do things bass ackwards anyway! 
I picked up HD's 2 pod Micro Gauge Bracket and 1-1/2" Micro Gauges for Oil Pressure and Voltmeter. HD states their gauges won't work with a windshield bag. As usual, I don't believe them. What do ya'll think? Fit, or not fit? Looks to me like these will work OK.
Also, my oil temp dipstick still works fine. But not very reliable from what I've been hearing. I always liked a voltmeter too. If your dipstick craps out, would you replace the voltmeter with an oil temp gauge instead, and rely on the Battery Light?
Thoughts to ponder. As usual, pics of all this to follow after install. That won't be til after the new motor gets installed. What do you SERKer guys think? 
Hoist! 
You know how H-D sells a clock and temp guage with a tap that holds them to a screw from your handlebar controls. You might try something like that if the guages aren't too heavy
OR
You could make a bracket out of billet that clamped to your handlebars about 1/2 up the rise on each side with the guages on the inside of the bars, one guage on each side. If we had etch a sketch on the posting part of this site, I'd draw you a picture of what I'm thinking about. Anyway, seems simple to me and would look trick too.
OR
Another option would be to mount them to the console strip below your speedo. Make a couple of round stainless cups to hold the guages, mount them on a flat piece of guage stainless plate, tig weld nicely, polish and mount over the stock console strip with a piece of thin rubber between to protect your stock console and absorb any vibration.
Think outside the box and the universe is the limit
