Default Let there be light!

The Silverstar H4 headlight bulb upgrade was not enough for me. So, I finally decided to add some additional lighting on the front to help increase visability and be able to see more when riding at night.
Went with the Kuryakyn Halogen Silver Bullets (small). Have not tried it a night yet, but from what I can tell with the lights off in the garage, they put out as much the headlight. With a little modification to the mont kit provided I was able to mount them and still keep my lowers in place. The lowers and the lights now share the same mountBut mis is just the matter of swapping out to the original screw if I decied to run without the lowers on.
There is a little bit of glare reflection off the lowers, since they are mounted behind the lowers. But they are down so low and out of my sight vision that I do not see it to be an issue.

The lowers are Memphis Shades. They really help block the wind from below.

Looks good, more light is always a plus.

I was looking at getting the same style lights only the larger ones, but I already have my turn signals mounted on the forks. I was thinking of making a tee to connect both the turn signal and the silver bullets would thenmount down off the tee.
