Ok, answers to a few questions. Yes the way I mounted it there is no interference with a lift. I made a small L bracket and put it right behind the rear brake pedal using a mounting bolt for the brake cylinder. See pics. I also mounted a switch on the dash in place of one of the blanks. This works for me but you could mount the switch anywhere. I have seen these mounted in the rear but I did not want to put a hole in the saddle bags. I just couldn't find a better place and as it turns out it shows well.
a friend of mine had a BMW with a light like that. Of course it was a BMW symbol under it thought it was cool for a cheap enough price id think about it. I wonder about lifting the bike with a jack under the frame would clear tho?
Batman
PS of course id get the batman one tho if i was to do it at all.
aren't the "batman" ones supposed to shine upwards towards the clouds?
That is very unique and looks great but with a 400 mA how long do you plan to leave it on, if you found an always on wire you'll be draining the battery overnight or am I missing something?

All that aside very clean install.
OP has it wired thru a switch on the dash. Look on the right side in his picture above.
I have a pair that I bought a couple of years ago but I just couldn't find a place that I wanted to mount them because I didn't want to drill holes in anything big enough to mount them. When I got mine the picture that was used was them mounted in the rear bottom of the tourpak and the lights shinning down at the back of the bike looked cool and I am thinking about mounting them on the new bike.
