well we got some lights and last night mounted them on my brothers bike. The look awesome.

the ilumination is very nice and it makes the front wheel to light up like crazy. Angled them to see a little bit right and left to widen the angles and its amazing. Posted here so others may get an idea of whst me and my brother did. Will post my bike photos later.

NICE!!! What kind of lights are they and where did you get them from? I picked up a set from DK Customs I believe not long ago. They are to go on my Road Glide but haven't gotten around to the install yet. Pretty lazy so may have my Indy do it. Dread the thoughts of opening the fairing on my new bike and besides, I want to get the cigarette lighter kit for it. Have them both done at once. Did I say I am lazy???

we got them at jpcycle for around 70 minus tax and shipping. So approx 100$ for one bike. Check their site and look for the 11 or 12$ 3 piece chromed clamps for the 1.25 inch tubes or one for your diameter and 4 1/2 inch head light chromed. Check it up, for wiring we used a cable kit from amazon for off road aux light cable kit. With minor mods it works like a charm if you pay 10$ more you can get the one with remote and nobody will on the side walk would drain your battery dry.

hope it help,
Tim

PS make sure the clamp hole and thr mounting bolt of thr headlight witch was 3/8 inch are the same. Use a piece of cardboard and a plier to squeeze the clamps lips so you dont nick the chrome while putting the retaining nut for the headlight into the clamp. We put the grounding cable from the cable kit to the nut on one of the headlight to have a small resistance to the negative equals to more light.

Tim,

cable kit i used.

Turbo SII Off Road LED Light Bar Wireless Remote Wiring Harness Kit 12V 40 Amp Relay Flash Control Box Strobe(1Lead) for Driving Fog Light Work Light Arctic Cat Wildcat Can Am Polaris RZR S 900 1000

guys this is what i used in our bikes, if anyone get damaged/hurt or what ever adverse consequences i take no responsibility what so ever this is for pure information only.

reminder start the bike with the extra lights off or it will might not start without turning them off. Then turn them on.

Our Stealth LED Driving-Passing lights provide great lighting.

Here's a pic showing how bright these lights alone are:



They can be mounted on the frame, engine guard, or forks.

Kevin (The K in "DK") has used these alone as headlights on his Sporty:



You can see one is pointed a little lower for the low bean and the other a little higher for the high beam.
