There's a fork clamp-on mount for spots AND signals, kind of like a Kuryakyn signal relocation kit.
Has anyone used one or know if it'll hold the weight without spinning?
A 6" Rigid Industries Single Row Driving Light will fit perfect between the forks. I was going to bolt it under the lower triple tree but I have a bunch of lines ran under for abs. Trying to figure a new bracket solution. That 6" single row driving light will turn the road into daylight.
Those stupid LED bars throw bright light into the eyes of oncoming traffic. They are meant for off road use only. Get a proper headlight upgrade before adding some cheap solution that blinds oncoming traffic at night.
I can recommend a great little 5 3/4" LED projector for $57. WIIPRO from Amazon unlike a lot of the cheap knock off lights it doesn't have a bunch of weird shaped bright and dim spots in the pattern. nice clean cutoff and and excellent throw. Just put one in my FXD. I've been spoiled by the headlamps in my Road Glide Ultra, and the truck lite I had in my street glide.
Well doing a search, evidently drilling and tapping is done all the time.
I noticed 2 high spots on the bottom of the lower tree that would corrispond to bolt locations.
So I'm thinking 5/16 or 3/8 stainless bolts. And if I want to remove the bar I can put the bolts in to fill the holes. They're only visible from the bottom as there's a cover piece on the lower tree.
Thanks for all your input.

Your bolts sure don't have to be stainless ... in some ( many ) instances stainless bolts are not as strong as a typical Grade 5 fastener.

It really depends on the manufacturer and consumer. Rigid actually has a few lights that are E-Code compliant (European road use) as well as DOT compliant. Those will not blind oncoming drivers. The problem is that Rigid lights typically have a price tag to go along with the name. Most aren't willing to pay $200 for what appears to be the same thing you can buy on E-Bay for $60.
