Definition of a stock design?   Any of one of our designs in any category on our Product Page other than the Custom Category

Definition of a custom design?  A custom design has an additional cost and allows you to provide any photo/artwork and we will make a 1 of kind custom speedometer face for your bike.  The sky is the limit in what you can put on your speedometer face.   See Photo Gallery for some examples of what we have made for other customers.

Time frame for a custom design?  To keep the cost reasonable for our customers we only print/cut speedometer faces at the same time we print/cut stock designs, which is 3 to 4 times a year.  If you are on our mailing address we send out an email stating that we are getting ready to print/cut speedometer faces.  Therefore if anyone wishes to order a custom face they can possibly get it in on that order.

Colors?  They do vary from computer monitor to computer monitor and also print lots.  If you are looking for a color to match your bikes color exactly without variances, we can't make any promises.  We do however try our very best to make each and every customer happy.

How our speedometer faces are made?  First we take an OEM speedometer face to our Graphic Artist he digitally duplicates a template with exact dimensions.  Then we add a stock design or your custom photo/artwork.  Product is then sent out to the printer and then on to the cutting press.  Our Custom Speedometer face is then attached to a poly carbon back.  After attaching the Custom Speedometer face is now the same thickness as your OEM speedometer face. 

Would Custom Speedometers make faces for a Custom Bike Builder?  Yes we would.    Prices would depend on each specific builder and/or volume needed.  If the builder uses same speedometer on each build, different designs on each bike would be no additional charge, theme bikes would also be no problem and we would actually love the opportunity.   Paul Jr.  Paul Sr. or Jesse gives us a call would love to hear from you.

Would Custom Speedometers consider making a face we do not offer?  There is a lot of expense in making a speedometer face.  There has to be a dye made for cutting the poly carbon backs, a separate dual or triple dye for cutting the actual face out and the expense of the labor our graphic artist charges.  Also to keep them cost effective for the consumer we must cut and print 1000 faces at a time.  So we can not make every speedometer face out there, at least at not this time.

Any Discounts for multiple orders?  Yes as always only one shipping charge of $6.05 per domestic order.  No matter how many faces are ordered.  Also 20% off when ordering 5 or more faces.  Email for discount and total on orders over 5 faces.

Are there any flaws in my new face?   It is possible that your new face could have some minor flaws around center hole or outer edge both will be covered after installation by needle and outer trim ring.  Each Custom Speedometer face has been sent to our quality control department and installed in an OEM speedometer to be certain that the finished product is flawless after installation.

Do we offer a Money Back Guarantee?   YES, After installing your new Custom Speedometer Face on your bike, if you are dissatisfied for any reason take a picture of it installed on your bike.  Then send your picture and the Custom Speedometer face back to us and you will receive a full refund.  No questions asked.  Shipping however will NOT be refunded.  Email us at info@customspeedometer.com for return instructions.

What bike's we offer at this time?   All 1996 - 2006 Harley Davidson Road King's, Dyna's, Sportster's and all Softails with digital speedometers.  Also available are matching tachometer faces for Sportster's and Dyna's. 

Some early 90's bike's have a mechanical speedometer.   The mechanical speedometer face has two windows odometer and tripometer read-out.  At this time we do not offer the mechanical speedometer face.    Also some 1998 RoadKings have a different face than the standard 1996-2003 face, which we do not have.  You can go to the bottom of the "Bikes We Customize" page and there are photos of all OEM faces we offer new faces for.  Pay close attention to the placement of where the odometer window is located.

Coming soon?  1931 - 1995 Harley Davidson FL Models.  We are having a tool made by a local machinist that will allow us to install these in a timely manor.

Are faces available in Kilometers?  At this time no, however we have had many requests for this and is possible but as of now it is not in the works.

Is the Speedometer/Tachometer combo available?  At this time no, however we have had some requests for this and is possible but as of now it is not in the works.  We do offer the Speedometer and Tachometer for all Sportster's and Dyna's.  They are 2 separate faces though.

Installation?  Installation Guide is included with every order.  Installation takes the average person about 1 1/2 to 2 hours to install.  Anyone can do it, however it takes some patience.  Another option soon, is we at Custom Speedometers will be offering a new service.  You will take your speedometer off your bike (5 minute job), send it to us, we will then install your new face and ship your speedometer back to you.  Cost of this service will be somewhere around $50 dollars to install, not counting the cost of the design of your choice.  We are having a tool made by a local machinist that will allow us to install these in a timely manor.  This tool is very expensive due to the design work and labor by the machinist.
