Default headlight mounting block

Looking for a headlight mounting block for my streetbob that will push the headlight up and out a bit. I like the stock light just not the way it's tucked so far in.

Not sure if what you mean but I made this one to center the light between the trees and move it forward about 1 1/4".

I use a 1.25" x 1.25" offset on my sportster which might do what you want since you've got the same bates style light as I do:



I just picked one from the Drag or Custom chrome catalog and ordered through www.discountcycleparts.com

Cheap way would be to reverse the mounting block so it pushes it out and buy a spacer to lift the block with a new longer bolt, that should move it up.
